UK HealthCare Sports Medicine is honored to recognize Brittany Martin, as the 2026 UK HealthCare Athlete Trainer of the Year!
Brittany earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Exercise Science from the University of Arkansas in 2022 and continued her education there to complete her Master’s Degree in Athletic Training in 2024.
Brittany chose to pursue athletic training at the high school level to stay closely connected to a wide variety of sports while making a lasting impact on student-athletes - not just in competition, but in their futures and lives beyond high school. She has been working with UK HealthCare Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine as the athletic trainer for Montgomery County high School for the past 2 year. Brittany always goes above and beyond for her student-athletes, walking them through every step of the recovery process. Brittany is kind, compassionate, and committed to making sure they receive the best care possible.
Her favorite part of the job is the unpredictability. No two days are ever the same, and each day brings new challenges, unique injury situations, and opportunities to continue learning and growing while caring for student-athletes.
Please join us in congratulating Brittany Martin on this well-deserved honor!
