Athletic Trainer Job Posting

The Fort Erie Meteors are looking for an Athletic Trainer for the 2026–2027 season.

This is a hands-on role with real responsibility. You’ll be part of the day-to-day team environment, working directly with players and staff to keep athletes healthy, game-ready, and supported throughout the season.


What You’ll Be Responsible For

  • Assessing injuries and providing first aid, treatment, and rehabilitation
  • Covering all home games, away games, and practices (September–March, plus playoffs)
  • Managing concussion protocols and maintaining the Emergency Action Plan
  • Building return-to-play plans alongside healthcare professionals
  • Communicating with players, coaches, and families on injuries and care
  • Supporting conditioning, injury prevention, and sport-specific needs
  • Keeping the training room organized, stocked, and ready
  • Maintaining injury reports, treatment logs, and required documentation
  • Educating players on safety, recovery, and proper habits
  • Following all league safety standards and certification requirements

What You’ll Be Part Of

You’ll work closely with players, coaches, hockey operations, and families — playing a key role in athlete safety and performance.

This isn’t a background role. You’re part of the team.

What We’re Looking For

  • Post-secondary education (completed or in progress) in:
    • Kinesiology
    • Physical Education
    • Exercise Science
    • Athletic Therapy
  • First Responder / BLS certification (or higher)
  • OHA Trainer Level 2 (or willingness to obtain before the season)

  • Must be 18+

Required certifications can be completed prior to the start of the season.
