The functional criteria-based rehabilitation programme was supervised by a sports physiotherapist and clearance was given for RTP once they successfully and asymptomatically completed the physiotherapy programme, including functional sport-specific activities.
11 18–21 Although there is no consensus as to when an athlete can safely RTP, in clinical practice an athlete is typically regarded as being ready once full range of motion, full strength and functional sport-specific activities (eg, sprinting, jumping and cutting) can be performed asymptomatically.
