Sports Physical
A sports physical, also known as a sport’s pre-participation examination, is a health assessment conducted to determine if an individual is fit to participate in sports. It typically includes a review of the person's medical history, a physical examination, and sometimes specific tests. The purpose is to identify any potential health issues or risks that could affect performance or lead to injury. This evaluation helps ensure that athletes are healthy enough to engage in their chosen sport safely, and it often required by schools and sports organizations before allowing participation in teams or competitive events.
