So, the World Cup has kicked off and football fever is here for the next month, so we’ve decided to embrace it and schedule an extra #physiotalk to discuss sports physiotherapy. We’ll be taking sports physio at all levels, across different types of sport for adults and children, at amateur and professional levels.
Areas of discussion will include:
- Pitch-side and other areas of sports physio
- Choosing a career in sports physiotherapy and different career pathways
- Core skills and competencies
- Working with other members of the MDT
