the beating heart of football T
he roar of an ecstatic crowd… the best players and athletes in the world showcasing their breathtaking skills… a stadium is always going to be the epitome and emblem of professional sport. The completely renovated CIVITAS Metropolitano stadium was reopened in 2017, with an increased capacity to seat almost 70,000 fans – it is now among the biggest and most impressive stadia in Spain and indeed Europe. These outstanding premises are a perfect fit for our international conference: modern meeting rooms and expansive open-air areas. Get ready to soak up the science and network in the Spanish sunshine in surroundings guaranteed to make you feel the beating heart of football.

SCIENTIST? PRATICTIONE bridging scien
I
n order to bridge the gap between science and practice we need to speed things up, transforming complex scientific evidence into easier clinical solutions. At the Isokinetic Conference in Madrid,
SLOW WORLD
SCIENCE Many thousands of papers have been published on football medicine and football injuries over the last three decades, however we still lack significant impact in many areas. From medical literature, we know that it takes 17 years on average to translate research into practice.
6 6
ATICTIONER? OR BOTH? ce and practice our 200+ leading international speakers will highlight the optimum practical application of the most recent scientific methods, based on the best evidence available, all the way from prevention to return to play.
Football Medicine practitioners need simple and adaptable solutions in dayto-day practice, in a fast and constantly changing world. Translating the most up-to-date evidence into practice, finding the best way to deliver excellence in injury prevention and management, is one of the main challenges in Football Medicine nowadays.
