Not only do we provide representation and support to past players and officials of the Carlton Football Club, we also actively support the current playing group. The Spirit of Carlton Past and Present and the Carlton Football Club have recently co-operated to enhance the recovery program for two currently injured players, Michael Jamison and Shaun Hampson. We have purchased some specialist equipment which is produced by Game Ready.
Costing almost $10k, two units have been purchased that will assist with the familiar RICE recovery regime familiar to athletes. For an explanation please read the following from the Game Ready website.
The RICE regimen (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) has been used for decades to treat acute and chronic injury and assist in post-operative rehabilitation. Many professional athletes and medical professionals choose Game Ready as a part of the RICE regimen because it uniquely combines adjustable cold and intermittent compression to deliver the two most difficult-to-manage aspects of RICE in one easy-to-use treatment system.
We hope that this equipment not only serves the current injured players well but also contributes towards future rehabilitation programs when needed by the club.
This is just another example of your contributions towards the SOC working in support of the club towards premiership number seventeen. Whenever you attend an SOC event, purchase one of our auction items or become an SOC member you are contributing towards positive outcomes for the Carlton Football Club.
