37: College Sports Healthcare and the Historical Basketball League with Tammi Gaw
In this episode, Peter speaks with Tammi Gaw, an attorney, athletic trainer and advocate and the founder and executive director of Advantage Rule, LLC. Peter speaks with Tammi about her unique career path and then they discuss the approach of the Historical Basketball League (HBL) to healthcare of its college athletes. They discuss how the HBL views athletes as employees (in contrast to the NCAA’s approach) and thus will provide worker’s compensation to athletes to cover ongoing physical issues as a result of playing in the league.
