On a sun-drenched field in the center of Piedmont High Schools track,
Daniel Kamenetzky stares intently at his trainees knees, trying to figure
out what shes doing wrong. Aha! he says, snapping his fingers. He then
gives some simple, but important instructions on how to position herself
so she doesnt strain her joints while she squats.
.
Kamenetzky is working with Ellie, an 8th grade volleyball player with knee
pain, as part of Childrens Hospital of Oaklands Athlete Development
Program. Conceived as a preventative branch of the hospitals already
booming Sports Medicine Center for Young Athletes, the program centers on
training kids and teenagers involved in a wide swath of sports. The goal
is to not only make them more efficient and improve their performance, but
to keep them injury-free. The athletes involved undergo an intense
evaluation in which their movements are filmed and tracked, and a series
of training sessions, all under Kamentzkys watchful eye.
.
Were seeing more preventative medicine in healthcare as a whole, says
Michelle Cappello, a physical therapist and management coordinator at the
sports medicine center. People are more aware of where we need to go, and
know that you cant just manage injuries when they come up. Were now
thinking in terms of what can we do to prevent them, and not just for the
next 6-8 weeks, but throughout their lifespan.
.
Slowly, Kamenetzky is growing the Athlete Development Program to
facilitate these goals. A native of Argentina, he studied biology,
physical education and kinesiology at the beginning of his career, and has
spent the last 25 years working with young athletes as a coach and
trainer. With his roiling accent, easy demeanor, and passion for all
things sports-related, Kamenetzky seems a natural fit for the job. As he
trains Ellie, he incorporates thumbs-ups, humor and gentle correction into
his teaching style.
