 Bill Moreau is the managing director of sports medicine for the U.S. Olympic Committee and That's a very big job because one of the greatest fears any athlete has is injury before the big game But with the Olympics happening only every four years You only get one chance for a lot of athletes. You're exactly right Especially when you consider that many athletes may practice their art of sport for two decades before they get their Olympic Opportunity so it's absolutely critical that we provide them with that opportunity to compete by protecting their health Well, it's seven Philip on research Institute in the Stedman Clinic The USOC has a very special relationship with can you tell me a little bit about that well We're very proud of our relationship with the Stedman Clinic and spry or their research arm of their clinic We pick our partners extremely careful because the responsibility that we have for the athletes that make up team USA And it's our confidence that we have in the clinicians as well as their support staff and also the Stedman Philip on research Institutes continued progression along their research pathways to prevent injury that makes it a pretty easy marriage for us as partners They're great people doing great things and we like to be with people like that There's a long history to Dr. Richard Stedman was treating Olympic athletes long before this relationship back in the 70s Even yes, he was he was not only treating athletes from the United States of America But dr. Stedman treated athletes from all over the world You could go anywhere in sports medicine and they all know who dr. Stedman is so talk about what you're doing here This is an injury prevention seminar or symposium That obviously is important to get you the USOC very heavily involved and focused on this Well, we're actually partnering in on this seminar this symposium this weekend, you know For team USA, we believe that if we can field a healthy team That they will enter the field of play and come out as winners And so the whole key is protecting the athletes health whether through injury or illness to give them that opportunity to Achieve whatever their potential is through the field of athletic competition in order to do that you doesn't happen by accident You have to develop strategies around the health and wellness of the athlete This conference addresses it from people that are world renowned Experts in this field and to have a chance to come here and participate with them is really an amazing thing Thank you very much Bill. It's my pleasure a great job that the USOC is doing here And it's easy to understand Imagine you're a a hundred meter runner and you spent your whole life Trying to run for 10 seconds and then you had an injury It would be very tough to deal with and the USOC and spry and the Stedman Clinic now changing all of that
