Team Enhance

Team ENHANCE is a program for student-athletes that was developed by the Women's Athletic Department of the University of Tennessee-Knoxville to create a healthy culture in which student-athletes can thrive. The name of the program is an acronym for Enhancing Nutrition, Health, Athletic performance, Networking, Community, and Education. The program provides nutrition information and education about eating disorders and other mental/emotional health issues facing young women today. It also provides a full continuum of services to promote the well-being of the student-athlete. Student-athlete's participation is held in strict confidentiality. Participants benefit from the program's successful partnering relationships with experts in many fields - eating disorders specialists, mental health and addiction professionals, nutritionists, therapists, consultants, and authors.

Wall of Champions

The reputation and recognition of the Lady Vol Athletic Training Department is a direct result of the staff's hard work, dedication and support. Our donor wall, which was created to honor those who have invested in our facility and services, continues to grow. The "Wall of Champions" has four levels of contributions which are tax deductible and count as University gift credit.
