Visiting Team Information

The athletic training room, located in the DuFour Athletic Center, can be found directly across from the men's locker room. As you enter DuFour's main doors, proceed to the end of the hallway located in front of you and turn right. We open no later than two hours prior to the start of competition.

Treatment (including taping) for visiting student-athletes is available prior to all contests. It is helpful to send a treatment letter explaining the needs of your athletes and necessary taping supplies are required. Please contact us via phone or e-mail if electric modalities are needed.

An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is on site for all home contests. We have an AED wall unit in the DuFour Center (just left of the women's restroom in the downstairs lobby) and a portable unit for use outdoors. If there are multiple events, the AED will be at the highest contact game.

A physician will be on site for all NCAA championship bracket contests hosted by Catholic University.
