Feeling good is great — but it doesn’t always mean you’re ready to return to sport safely. A proper Return to Sport (RTS) assessment helps ensure your body is prepared for the demands of training and competition.

What an RTS Assessment Includes A thorough RTS assessment looks at four key areas:

1. Strength and Power Symmetry Making sure both sides of the body can produce force evenly.
2. Balance and Movement Control Assessing coordination, landing mechanics and stability.
3. Confidence and Mental Readiness Returning confidently is just as important as returning physically.
4. Sport-Specific Performance Tests Testing movements, skills and demands unique to your sport.

Returning too early increases the risk of reinjury. A structured RTS assessment gives you a clear, objective picture of your readiness and what still needs work.
