Mission Statement
We exist to reunite permanently-sidelined student-athletes with their passions and inspire them to find a meaningful way forward. Our vision is to see athletes create a positive mindset within themselves, requiring their personal best, in order to confidently face and overcome their challenges, both on and off the field/court. We make specialized support resources available to all sidelined student-athletes nationwide at no cost and to elevate the standard of care for medically disqualified athletes through research, education, and advocacy.
About This Cause
Sidelined USA is an advocacy and support program serving athletes who have had to discontinue competition due to career-ending injury, health condition, or repeat concussions. Sidelined USA serves this community of sidelined athletes through RESOURCES, CONNECTION, and NEW PURSUITS. Resources: We publish free research-based articles and interviews to assist in promoting a healthy adjustment and psychological recovery for permanently-sidelined athletes. Parents, athletic trainers, coaches, and physicians gain insight into understanding and supporting the sidelined athlete. Athletes gain practical tools to help them find a meaningful way forward. Connection: Sidelined USA creates spaces for sidelined athletes to come together as a community and engage with one another. Through shared experiences, inspiring interviews, and personal connection to other permanently-sidelined student athletes, the injured athlete can gain a positive outlook on the future. New Pursuits: At Sidelined USA we help permanently-sidelined student-athletes find new fulfillment and adapt to their new reality in a meaningful way. Sidelined student-athletes are inspired and encouraged to re-engage with the sports world through alternate avenues.
