A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the second IFSPT Webinar! ๐Ÿ™Œ

We had the pleasure of hosting Dr Rod Whiteley from Aspetar, who took us on a live walkthrough of their Riadh Assessment and Movement Analysis Laboratory (RAMAL) which is a true gold standard in ACL return to sport protocols.

This practical session explored how the RAMAL approach has halved ACL reinjury rates and is now being implemented around the world. Attendees got an exclusive, behind the scenes look at the assessment process, including real time demonstrations that showed why this system is considered a global benchmark.

๐ŸŽฅ Replay access will be available for purchase soon!
