MISSION

The mission of the ADSR Networking Group is to provide evidence-based information and promote best practices in the training and development of athletes of all levels as well as the rehabilitation of sport-related injuries.

 

VISION

The ACRM Athlete Development & Sports Rehabilitation (ADSR) Networking Group will lead the way in reviewing, understanding, and promoting best practices in athlete development and the rehabilitation of sport-related injuries. It is believed that optimal athlete training and development will reduce the risk of sport-related injuries. Recovery from injury will be facilitated by evidence-based practices that are informed by a biopsychosocial model.

 

GOALS

Initial goals of the Athlete Development and Sports Rehabilitation Networking Group include:

  • Clearly identify at least one project for each of the two task forces. Projects currently under discussion include:
    • Developing an evidence-based fact sheet for aspiring athletes and their parents/coaches
    • Surveying current providers regarding their concussion management/rehabilitation practices and needs
    • Conducting a study to determine if pre-season testing can identify athletes at risk of injury.
  • Submitting at least two speaker/symposia and at least two posters for the ACRM 2019 Annual Conference.
  • Have one full content track at the 2020 ACRM Conference.
  • Recruit and expand the ADSR Networking Group and ACRM membership.
