This forum is very much interesting! i wish it was possible for me to sit and chat for the whole day.

Anyway...

Sports physiotherapy is a very satisfying practice Tiger. It is however very challenging also. The easiest part I think is the management of injuries that result from the activities either in training or in a match. These injuries are purely soft tissue injuries and you manage them the same way you would manage any such injury. Except with sports people you aim at the quickest recovery root as this is their livelyhood. Your undergraduate trainning has basically prepared you for sports physiotherapy. Areas you should look at however, are sports pshychology and children in sports. Also you should look at prevention of injuries in relation to correct exercise regimes including warm up and warm down, correct sports equipment, suitable playing surfaces etc.

Go out there and bring out the good Physio in you!

Share your experience tiger you got a nice chance to develop your skills in sports pt You should have a first aid kit with you & it is very essential for a sports pt. You should take decission very quickly in order to treat the injuries. For that you should watch the mechanism of injuries very carefully. Do a quick assesment based on observation, palpation, don't do any special test on the field, best of luck. s
