James Carter Jr.

I had the responsibility of supporting athletic trainers in the training room and assisting athletes with treatment. Additionally, I oversaw practice and game day operations, ensuring water availability for fall sports practices. On game days, my duties included setting up the field for football, managing halftime and refilling water, and ensuring proper arrangements for emergencies, such as an ambulance and gators. I also extended this support to soccer and volleyball games. During the games, I had to stand by the athletic trainer, ready to respond if an athlete went down. My role included quickly fetching the EMT or Gator in case of emergencies, ensuring a swift and effective response to any unforeseen situations on the field.

I working at an amusement park for kids, I had the enjoyable task of guiding and teaching children how to navigate the sky obstacle course safely. Ensuring everyone's safety was a top priority, so I took charge of fitting harnesses correctly. Additionally, I worked in the Bazooka Ball area, where foam ball battles ensued with paintball-like guns. My role included team selection and explaining the rules to ensure a fun and safe experience for all participants.

Track and field coach

After tearing my labrum in my shoulder and being unable to participate in my usual events, where I had excelled as the best in the district and region, I made the decision to support my teammates by joining the coaching staff. Fortunately, my coach entrusted me with the responsibility of coaching my teammates in shot put and discus. This involved creating drills tailored to their needs and setting achievable goals to help them improve in these events.
