Copter?
NYC EMS Police or fire has copters for use. But injuries such as these wouldn't be used with all there is in NYC. There is a Level 3 or 4 trauma hospital not far from Big A but it is in a terrible area. Mainly for gunshots and things like that.
All sports injuries in NY go to either:
Hospital for Special Surgery affiliated with Cornell-Columbia Presbyterian Medical School (Mets/Giants/Knicks/St Johns)
Hospital for Joint Diseases affiliated with NYU Medical school. (Yankees/Rangers)
LIJ-North Shore on Long Island near Belmont (Islanders/Jets/Hofstra U).
They all compete for prestige of sports teams. They even try to buy off sports teams for the rights to cover the teams.
