The Sporting Lower Limb

This course is for registered physiotherapists who work with individual athletes or teams in which lower limb injury is common. The focus of the course is on pathomechanics and kinetic chain deficits as they relate to injury prevention and performance. This course is TBC for March 2022

The Sporting Upper Limb

This course will provide you with advanced skills in the assessment and rehabilitation of sporting injuries involving the upper limb. It covers pathomechanics, diagnostic imaging, initial management, rehabilitation progressions and key considerations for return to training and sport. Topics covered will include subacromial pain (e.g. swimmers shoulder); internal rotation deficits and micro‐instability (e.g. throwing/ racquet sports); dislocations/labral tears/fractures (e.g. contact sports) multi‐directional instability; common extensor tendinopathy in sport and common wrist injuries in sport. This course is TBC for May 2022

The Sporting Spine, Pelvis and Hip

This course will provide you with advanced skills in the assessment and rehabilitation of sporting injuries involving the spine, pelvis and hip. It covers normal mechanics and pathomechanics, diagnostic imaging, management, rehabilitation progressions and key considerations for return to training and sport. Topics covered will include the neck and thoracic pain in sport; the sporting spine and lumbar loading, training of the trunk musculature in athletes, the sporting hip and sports-related groin injuries. This course is TBC for Oct 2022

Injury Prevention & Performance Enhancement

This course will provide you with the key skills used in the enhancement of sporting performance and prevention of injury. It covers the analysis of physical, biomechanical and technical needs of sport, identifying key factors affecting performance and injury prevention. You will learn how to assess athletes and implement an individualised programme designed to optimise movement efficiency, performance and minimise injury risk. You will learn how to develop a sport–‐specific screening assessment, how to monitor injury rates and target injury prevention strategies within different sporting contexts. This course is TBC for November 2022
