Welcome back!

Welcome back!  This time, I was asked to work as an athletic trainer for USA Deaf men's soccer team to Venezuela for Deaf Pan Am soccer tournament.  I am excited for this opportunity and gain more experience as an athletic trainer at an international level.  I am looking forward to reunite with the USA men's deaf soccer team again.  Some of you don't know that I worked with them at 2009 Summer Deaflympics games. (here's the link if you want to read or re-read it, I am surprised it is still there--  http://deaflympicsatc.blogspot.com/)  I had a blast, and am looking forward to work with them again. 

My work company, PRORehab pc. in St. Louis asked me to do another blog and I will be happy to do it again.  I surely hope to have internet access down there.  If we don't have it then I will write it down and post it when I get back.  Either way, I will try to post it daily or every other day. 

I will depart St. Louis on Wednesday, November 16th and return back on November 28th.  I will meet with the team down in Miami on November 16th and travel together down to Venezuela.  I will share with you of my experiences (travelling, entertainment, athletic training, and of course soccer tournament).

Also, I plan to take pictures and post it on this blog or flicker if I can remember how to figure it out.  I am no tech geek.  If anyone could teach me via e-mail, then e-mail me at wcweirjr@gmail.com for tips.  Thanks!
