Health Screening - Atlanta Select

Atlanta Select Basketball Association Implements Student Athlete Health Screening.

Atlanta Select programs are based on three principles: Education, Life Skills and Sports. "Good Health" is a critical "Life Skills" element. We recognize that athletes and "good health" are interwoven elements. Too many student athletes are victims of unmonitored and preventable health consequences.

Atlanta Select has formed a partnership with the Vital Health Care Group to provide baseline health screening, including performing a state of the art assessment of the heart which is vital to health and athletic performance. This service will begin in the Spring of 2010 and will be provide to all of Atlanta Select's participating student athletes.
