Team Firefighter is a non profit organization dedicated to providing support to firefighters who want to better themselves through fitness in sport.
The #1 cause of on the job deaths of firefighters is heart attacks, which can be best prevented by a regular fitness program. By improving the health and fitness of firefighters, we will save the lives of firefighters and those they are there to protect.
The imposition of state mandated fitness standards and mandatory workout programs can often create a negative attitude towards fitness and fail to make a significant difference. By creating a competitive environment in the firehouse through sport and internal competition, more of an impact on the fitness of firefighters will be obtained. It is only through cultural change in the firehouse that any significant bearing on our grim health statistics will be improved.
