Join us on Wednesday 6 August 2025 for a one-day interactive online conference covering a range of clinical sports medicine topics.

Primary care sports medicine focuses extensively on the diagnosis, management and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries and disorders. It encompasses a wide range of disciplines and practices aimed at promoting the health and fitness of athletes and physically active individuals. Understanding sports medicine enables GPs to provide comprehensive care for patients of all ages and activity levels, addressing not just general health but also physical activity-related issues. Join us for a full day of practical and interactive discussion exploring common sports medicine presentations in general practice, and some introductions on how to become involved in this exciting specialty.

Topics include:

  • Rheumatology in sports medicine
  • Women’s health in sports medicine
  • Concussion
  • Cardiology in sports
  • Psychological consideration in rehabilitation in sports and exercise medicine
  • Foot and ankle injuries
  • Panel discussion

Learning objectives:

  • Increase delegates’ knowledge on identifying and managing various sporting injuries and medical conditions amongst the physically active population
  • Gain an appreciation of sex-specific considerations in injury risk, rehabilitation, and exercise physiology
  • Recognise the psychological factors affecting recovery from sports injuries
  • Identify training and career pathways to develop a special interest in SEM alongside general practice
