1974 Profile: Sid Moret

Equipment Manager-Assistant Trainer
"For the past 25 years, Sid Moret has been an invaluable contributor to the behind-the-scenes operations of the New York Giants. He has filled a variety of necessary roles, including equipment manager, assistant trainer and director of clubhouse morale. Sid, a New Yorker all the way (via Brooklyn, that is), is a product of New York University.
He joined the staff of the Giants in 1949 (the same year as co-trainer John Johnson) and assumed the dual role of equipment man and part-time trainer. Moret worked with the NYU Athletic Association after leaving school and, during World War II, he was associated with the Gene Tunney physical fitness program in the U.S. Navy (1943-45). In 1946-47, Sid was introduced to professional sports as trainer for the Brooklyn Dodgers of the old All-America Conference. Prior to joining the Giants, Brooklyn-born Moret handled the training chores for Brooklyn College (1948-49).
At various times, Sid has also served as trainer for basketball teams visiting Madison Square Garden."
