SportMed Performance

Team Services

SportMed BC has developed resources and created a network of highly experienced experts in a variety of areas who are interested and equipped to assist athletes and coaches across the sport spectrum. SportMedBC clients are provided with access to programs and services that have a significant impact on athlete and team performance.

SportMedBC performance consultants will develop a comprehensive program that is unique to each client group. We work with the coach to create an optimal annual delivery plan for the program and we will coordinate all aspects of the program throughout the year. SportMedBC’s partnerships with the provincial network of sport medicine and science practitioners enable us to create cost effective ways of delivering services. As well, our staff is well-versed on accessing the high performance program funding that may be available both provincially and federally.

Examples of program components we include in our team service packages include:

• Athlete medical monitoring and ongoing injury case management

• Athlete functional assessments conducted by experienced therapists

• Nutritional assessment and supplement review

• Physical assessment with strength and conditioning follow-up

• Mental skills assessment and ongoing training

• Program planning and optimal integration of desired components

• Comprehensive training camp support (assessments, educational seminars, skill building workshops)

• Parent workshops (which are particularly useful for youth team clients)

• Identification and preparation of medical staff for team travel
