This Expert Program is structured with a longitudinal focus on the rehabilitation of football players. Initially, it examines injury incidence and the specific characteristics of football-related injuries, establishing a solid reference framework for understanding the nature of the main issues affecting players.
Building on this foundation, the program advances to the study of the principles underpinning post-injury rehabilitation processes, integrating physiological, functional, and contextual criteria. This entire educational pathway is developed within an ecological perspective of the game and the player, which serves as a transversal axis for task design and content planning, ensuring that each intervention remains coherent with the real demands of the competitive environment.
1. Injury Incidence and Injury Management in Football
2. Fundamentals of the Return-to-Competition Process
