Return-to-play rates for both upper extremity and lower extremity conditions reveal that rehabilitation professionals might not be providing their athletes adequate physical preparation for return to play. In addition, reinjury rates for some injuries, like ACL reconstructions, are high. Therefore, our assessment of physical readiness for return to play may also be inadequate to reduce the risk of reinjury. The purpose of this webinar is to review evidence-based screening and testing procedures to determine physical readiness for performance training, and to help the rehabilitation professional design programming to address the specific needs of the athlete in order to optimize status at return to play and, eventually, for performance in sport.
