SUMMARY:Healthy Hearing
DESCRIPTION:Healthy Hearing conducts hearing screenings. Reduced hearing can have a significant negative impact on an athlete’s ability to respond to directions in training\, as well as understand other verbal information from coaches. The safety of the athlete also can be impeded by hearing loss\, as can the athlete’s interpersonal relationships.  Screening of hearing is the first step in the process of identifying an athlete’s hearing loss and preventing its negative effects from occurring in sporting and social events. \nAthletes with a current SOWI Athlete Registration and Medical form and Athlete Release form are welcome to attend any Health event\, even if they are not competing at the Tournament.
