Today’s the day 🎉

Our webinar with Blaise Dubois (The Running Clinic) is now SOLD OUT for the live session, great to see so much interest in this topic.

Overuse injuries continue to be one of the biggest challenges in sport, so it’s clear this is a conversation people want (and need) to be part of.

If you weren’t able to get a spot, don’t worry! The full replay will be available shortly after the session via the ISEPA website 👉 https://ifspt.org/webinars

We’ll share an update here as soon as it’s live, so keep an eye on our socials 👀

Overuse injuries are still one of the biggest challenges in sport.

For runners, nearly 1 in 2 get injured every year… and that hasn’t really changed, despite everything we’ve added in over the years.

So what are we actually missing?

In this free webinar, Blaise Dubois (The Running Clinic) will share a simple, practical way to better understand load, guide rehab, and support a safer return to sport.

If you work with athletes, runners, or active populations, this is a really useful one.

Our evolution as a profession continues.

Founded in 2000, IFSPT has grown alongside sports and exercise physiotherapy worldwide. Today, that journey continues as we evolve to ISEPA, the International Sports and Exercise Physiotherapy Association.

This transition will take place in phases across the coming months, so you may see both IFSPT and ISEPA used during this time.

Our profession has evolved, and so have we🌍

After careful consideration, the International Federation of Sports Physical Therapy (IFSPT) is changing its name to ISEPA - the International Sports and Exercise Physiotherapy Association.

This change reflects:

🌐 the use of physiotherapy as a globally recognised term
🏃‍♀️ the growing role of exercise and physical activity within modern practice
🤝 our identity as a global association united by shared purpose

While our name is evolving, our values, mission, and commitment to sports and exercise physiotherapy remain unchanged.

The transition to ISEPA will be introduced in phases. During this time, you may see both IFSPT and ISEPA used across our website, communications, and social platforms. This approach is intentional and designed to ensure clarity and continuity.

👉 You can read the executive statement and rationale for the name change on our website https://ifspt.org/why-ifspt-is-becoming-isepa

We’re proud to support Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) through an IFSPT Association Partnership contribution.

PEDro plays a vital role in supporting evidence-based physiotherapy worldwide, helping clinicians, researchers and educators access high-quality research to inform practice.

As a non-profit organisation working largely on a volunteer basis, this contribution reflects our continued commitment to evidence, education and global collaboration in sports physiotherapy.

Thank you to the PEDro team for the important work you do.
