Coach Chad Abrams graduated from Reeltown High School in 1985. Coach Abrams, as he is known to everyone in the Reeltown Community, has been an athletic trainer at various levels in the Reeltown Athletics Department for 38 years. He started playing football in the spring of 1979 and by his junior year, he developed a passion for caring for athletes in the medical field. He started as a student athletic trainer during the 1983 & 1984 football seasons. He received both his Bachelor’s Degree in Science and his Master’s Degree in Health Promotion from Auburn University.  

Coach Abram’s hours of service for Reeltown High School go above and beyond his call of duty as an athletic trainer. He stays on top of athletic equipment needs and the transportation of equipment during the athletic season. He has been an integral part of the upgrading of our athletic facilities and supplies throughout the years. In 2022, the Reeltown High School Football Facility was renamed after Coach Abrams for his many years of hard work and dedication to Reeltown High School.

In 2006, he became the coordinator of the Kenny Howard Fellowship in which he oversaw the placement of graduate assistant athletic trainers from Auburn University.
