  &lt;strong&gt;2009 Soccer Industry Medical Symposium&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;style3&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;Interest in fourth annual SIMS at all-time high; registration still available with open spots &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;style1&quot;&gt;NEW YORK (December 22, 2008) -- The 2009 Soccer Industry Medical Symposium announced that registered attendance for the fourth annual event has reached an all-time high, yet a few open spots remain open for new registrants. The event in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, takes place on Saturday, January 10, 2009, at the Marriott Harbor Beach (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.marriottharborbeach.com&quot;&gt;www.marriottharborbeach.com&lt;/a&gt;).  &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  Based upon the success of the previous symposiums, the 2009 SIMS will make available a limited number of positions to qualified sports medicine professionals approved through the online registration available at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cme.hsc.usf.edu/soccer&quot;&gt;www.cme.hsc.usf.edu/soccer&lt;/a&gt;. Sports medicine professionals are approved to receive continuing education credits for this course through the University of South Florida. Details are offered on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.psats.net/sims.htm&quot;&gt;SIMS&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cme.hsc.usf.edu/soccer/&quot;&gt;USF&lt;/a&gt; websites.&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  &amp;#34;DJO has supported the Soccer Industry Medical Symposium since its inception and is proud of this affiliation. This annual event has provided an opportunity to support the growth of soccer and connect with the sports medicine professionals leading the way. We have appreciated being a part of this educational symposium growth and look forward to supporting its future development,&amp;#34; Michael McBrayer, &lt;span class=&quot;style4&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DJO&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Senior VP for Business Development.&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  The 2009 Soccer Industry Medical Symposium has created a curriculum focused on the most relevant topics facing the sport and featuring many accomplished presenters. The keynote speaker will be Jan Ekstrand, Vice-Chairman of the UEFA Medical Committee. &amp;#34;It is an honor to be invited to this event and discuss the evolution of preventative techniques in soccer globally. Originally, preventative programs were aimed at player factors only. Today, the load of players (decided by coaches and club managers) is recognized as an important factor as well.&amp;#34;&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  &amp;#34;As a passionate follower and supporter of soccer and MLS, supporting this event is a real treat. Dynatronics supports MLS, SIMS and PSATS and the continued growth of these groups. That is why we are fully committed to making this event a real success and a great educational symposium. The level of expertise and experience that you provide at this event is way beyond the ordinary and is a must for anyone wishing to learn from some of the best!&amp;#34; said Chris Crawford, exhibitor and Product Manager for &lt;span class=&quot;style4&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dynatronics Corporation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;style2&quot;&gt;2008 Soccer Industry Medical Symposium&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  &lt;span class=&quot;style5&quot;&gt;SIMS enters its third year poised for continued growth&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;style1&quot;&gt;NEW YORK (October 24, 2007) -- The 2008 Soccer Industry Medical Symposium announced its third annual event will return to Ft. Lauderdale, FL and take place on Saturday, January 12th (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.psats.net&quot;&gt;www.psats.net&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;
    &amp;#34;SIMS started as a meeting to share scientific and clinical information with the MLS team physicians and athletic trainers but the content and participants have expanded rapidly since its beginning&amp;#34; said MLS Medical Director, Lawrence Lemak. &amp;#34;Because of the tremendous interest in the topics and the expansion of medical soccer information the meeting has grown into the source for answers on soccer medical information.&amp;#34;  Participants in the 2007 event represented all thirteen MLS teams, CONCACAF, the United States Soccer Federation, the Canadian Soccer Association, the Mexican First Division and many other corporate partners and professional associations.&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;
    &amp;#34;The spectacular popularity of soccer among youth means that we can develop the finest models of safety and fitness for all sports. By working with professional soccer, and the Soccer Industry Medical Symposium, we're excited by the idea of developing an educational collaboration that can attract international interest and improve health and safety issues in soccer,&amp;#34; said Jeff Konin, PhD, ATC, PT, of the University of South Florida�s Department of Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine.  The University of South Florida is partnering with Major League Soccer to offer continuing education credits to sports medicine professionals at�multiple levels and areas of expertise.&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;
