Return to sport

Return to sport refers to the process an athlete undergoes to safely resume participating in their sport after an injury or illness. It involves a series of evaluations and rehabilitative measures to ensure the athlete has regained their strength, mobility, and overall fitness. This process may include physical therapy, strength training, and gradual reintroduction to their sport to prevent re-injury. Specialists, including coaches and medical professionals, play a critical role in assessing readiness, addressing physical and psychological aspects, and ensuring that the athlete is fully prepared to compete safely and effectively.
