Player Safety

The primary focus of McDonogh's strength and conditioning program is to prevent injury and to help students get faster and stronger. By creating well-rounded exercise regimens and teaching athletes proper technique, we aim to decrease the likelihood of suffering common injuries. Our strength and conditioning staff work with teams and individual athletes to tailor programs that build a strong foundation and help players reach their goals.   

Our lifetime fitness facility, upgraded in 2015, provides state-of-the-art cardio and weight training equipment. Beginning in eighth grade, athletes are taught how to properly use equipment and how to train in a way that maximizes results without the risk of overtraining or fatigue injuries.
