Knowing when an athlete is ready to return to sport is rarely straightforward. This session breaks down return-to-sport testing into a clear, usable framework — helping clinicians move beyond time-based decisions and toward confident, criteria-driven reasoning. You'll learn how to interpret tests, recognise false readiness, and integrate physical performance with confidence and control.
