Basketball Club:
The main that we do as basketball club is organize the March tournament that is going on right now. It usually starts in early March and goes through the end of April. It’s just like a fun tournament for everyone to play in. It is a 3 v 3 tournament and we just play at the hoop [here at the CHS campus]. Another thing we do is work with COM (College of Medicine) to play in their tournament which is on April 20th this year so if anyone wants to come check that out. That happens at a high school in Elk Grove. It’s a tournament where we have a team, the medical school has three teams, pharmacy has two teams, and there is a staff team, and Kaiser has a couple of teams, and Davis had a team last year I don’t think they do this year. This is the first year we are participating in that and if that goes well we are going to do that every year. Other than that, we have meetings to just discuss basketball in general if anyone enjoys watching basketball or playing basketball we usually end up playing every day. Any one that is in basketball club and wants to play I usually ask them to give me their number and I’ll just text them to come play with us. It’s a very informal club, it’s just for anyone that enjoys basketball in general.

Chess Club:
Hello, my name is Vinay Channaveerappa. I am one of the founders and the current president of the CNSU CHS Chess Club. We started the Chess Club as a way to help the students at CHS relax and destress after classes. We also wanted to promote active thinking and strategy planning in a fun way. Our mission is to provide an escape for the students at CHS and bring them a game that they may have in common to socialize, compete with one another, and just have fun. We know that chess is a big hit at this school since we are always seeing a crowd huddled around one of our chess sets, playing a casual game. We are always looking for more members; with enough people signed up we are even considering planning larger tournaments, possibly with other campuses. We hope to see more people join us in the years to come. Cheers!

Sports Medicine Club:
Sports medicine club it’s not just solely based on sports medicine, the reason it’s named that is because it deals with biomechanics and sports medicine encompasses all the biomechanics. It’s really meant to further the understanding of anatomy but put it into more practical use. So if you know how a knee works and functions and how it moves, then that’s the biomechanics aspect of it. Then if someone gets injured in the knee, how would you diagnose them and what would you diagnose them with and go through every aspect. So we do a lot with special tests. What special tests are: tests used by all medical practitioners, they diagnose the particular aspect, so if a person has an ACL tear then you do a special test called the Lachman’s. You’re basically gonna move the tibia anteriorly and the test will determine the laxity in the ACL to see if it’s actually torn. So that’s just a little example of what a special test is, and we’ll do stuff with CPR, range of motion of joints, comparing athletes versus nonathletes, and reflex testing, literally anything practical that could be applied in medicine. It’s supposed to be fun but there’s a lot of information If you’re interested in becoming a doctor then you’ll learn this stuff eventually, so it’s literally what you’re going to learn in med school in your bachelor’s program.
