Creating an Environment for Safe Activities (Athletic Trainers)

Published: August 21, 2026

To ensure that students can focus on their school life and club activities with peace of mind, our school assigns athletic trainers to provide support after school on weekdays and on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, in addition to the standard Health room services available during the week. On Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, they are available from 9:00 to 16:00 to provide first aid for injuries or sudden illnesses during club activities, as well as to check students' physical conditions.

Furthermore, after school on weekdays, they provide guidance on the safe use of training equipment, check for proper form during strength training, and offer advice on stretching methods. A distinctive feature of our school is the support provided to each student according to their physical condition, which helps prevent injuries and improve performance.

Our school has over 40 sports clubs, and many students participate in daily activities with high goals in mind. In such an environment, we value not only the improvement of competitive skills but also "creating an environment where activities can be continued safely." Having athletic trainers with specialized knowledge support students on a daily basis alongside faculty members provides peace of mind not only for the students themselves but also for their parents.

One of the characteristics of our school is that we have established a system to support students so they can feel secure in their daily activities, including not only their studies but also school life and club activities.
