UNCP Athletics

Our athletic training staff would like to welcome you to The University of North Carolina at Pembroke and Pembroke, N.C. We will do everything to make your stay comfortable during your time in Pembroke. The first class athletic training facilities are located in the English E. Jones Health & Physical Education Center (Main Athletic Training Room) and the Bob Caton Fieldhouse (Football Satellite Athletic Training Room). These modern facilities are some of the finest in Division II and will enable us to meet any of your athletic training needs. The number one priority of the Athletic Training program is to provide Braves student–athletes with the best medical care available using our sports medicine team. This team consists of licensed/certified athletic trainers, physicians, specialists and athletic training students. Our goal is to expedite the diagnosis following an injury or illness using our team of medical professionals and immediate diagnostic testing. These components will assist in an expedited return to sport. In addition, our athletic training staff utilizes a hands-on philosophy and current rehabilitation techniques to accomplish this goal.
