Column: Physio Talk - TEAM SPORT BRING IT ON
As the final stages of COVID-19 restrictions begin to lift, many of us are just itching to get back into our team sports and the benefits are obvious for both physical and mental health. And while we don’t want to be the ones to curb all that pent-up enthusiasm, it is also true that sports clubs and players are being urged to ensure they are match fit before they hit the court or field.

Many more of us have been walking, running and cycling during quarantine which is great for maintaining general fitness, but that doesn’t mean we are ready to go straight back into the high-speed running, agility and contact activities of the competitive sporting arena.
