Team Concept Conference 2018

November 29-December 1
Westgate Las Vegas Resort
Las Vegas, Nevada

Join the AASPT for our flagship event, November 29 to December 1, at the Westgate Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, just one block off the famous Las Vegas Strip!

Earn up to 19 CEUs while networking with your colleagues, visiting with old friends and making new ones! This is the only conference designed specifically for sports physical therapists and sports physical therapy assistants and their fellow sports medicine team members: athletic trainers and physicians.

This year’s feature symposium is The Tactical Athlete: Here It’s Not A Game. You’ll hear from presenters experienced in working with athletes that function in the most adverse conditions possible: military, police and firefighting athletes. They must perform under dangerous conditions, carrying heavy loads and suffer higher levels of head, neck and trauma to the extremities. You will also learn about training, treatment and rehabilitation of MMA fighters. While you may not work with tactical athletes on a regular basis, it is likely that most sports physical therapists do work with athletes who have high risk of physical trauma: football, soccer and rugby players, as well as baseball, basketball and other sports at a lesser level. This is an essential symposium for everyone!

As always, the AASPT has planned events to enhance your experience, from a welcome reception, to a student-only morning break on Friday, to our popular TeamMates event Friday evening. Enjoy our expo hall, where sponsors will offer live demonstrations at each break and bring you up to date on the latest tools, techniques and opportunities in the field.

It’s not a game…it’s your career! Make the most of it and join us in November in Las Vegas!
