Part I: Your NCSC Activities | |
| Name person submitting report | Shea Stark |
| Your position in your NCSC | Past President |
| Date of annual meeting | 15/10/2022 |
| 1. ACTIVITY: Summary of activity within your NCSC over the last quarter. If there has not been much activity in the last quarter, you may consider including any projects you are working on, issues your NCSC is facing, discussions or growth with which you may like support. | The ACASC held its annual symposium in Denver, CO October 14-15, 2022. It was the first live symposium since 2019. We also held elections for the board of directors and the newly elected positions are Chris Hargrave as President, Kaila Alvarez as 2nd VP, and Jordan Knowlton-Key as Secretary. Covid essentially killed our Chiropractic Sports Network with the lack of sporting events being held for those two years in the US. So we are trying to rebuild the network, but changing the overall focus and execution of the network. We are working to build online educational content as a member benefit addition. |
| CHALLENGES: List any challenges which your NCSC are facing, or your Executives are working to solve. (List N/A if none at this stage) | We are always brainstorming ideas to enhance member benefits. We also tend to struggle to fill ICSC hands on modules in the US and are really focusing on advertising those modules to boost the number of ICSC docs in the US. We are hoping that The World Games being held in the US this year will allow members to understand the importance. |
Part II: Areas where FICS and your NCSC could collaborate | |
| COLLABORATION: College/Educational Institution with which you have / or are developing relationships with. (If applicable) | N/A |
| EVENTS/GAMES: Any contacts you have with International Sporting Federations. Do you need any help from FICS to organise contact with holders of regional/international games? (If applicable) | One of our board members works a national rugby event and may be gaining a larger role in staffing the medical personnel and expressed interest in involving both the ACASC and FICS. (Still in progress) |
| COLLABORATION: List any major events/conferences which you have coming up and a event link so FICS can co-promote. (If applicable) | N/A |
| OPPORTUNITIES: List any opportunities which you may like FICS to help support or promote. (If applicable) | We have a partnership agreement with FICS to promote the ICSC Upper Extremity hands on module being held in Texas in March 2023. |
| FOLLOW-UP: Please select any followup you are interested in. FICS will get the respective Commission Chair or your Regional Rep to contact you. (If applicable) | Regional Rep |
