CONFERENCE The FMPA Conference offers excellence in education content delivered by respected and valued colleagues, members and international speakers.

The programme “Contemporary issues in professional sports medicine and performance” is designed to offer ‘something for everyone’ and will be presented in a manner that appeals to all disciplines and at all levels of the game.

The Conference this year is aimed at a wide variety of subjects to give practitioners an idea of the medical and performance aspects of our game. We will be looking at the high-end performance strategies, through to how managerial changes affect us all on the M and P side. We aim to encompass the world of the Women's game, Academies and also how external practitioners are currently working alongside medical departments to better serve our players. We will also cover how the world of nutrition works and how this has changed dramatically over the last few years.

We are lucky to have so many highly qualified, experienced and knowledgeable speakers here on the panel and they will all come together at the end of the day as a round table to answer any of your questions

“Great to be back face to face and see so many younger generation physios, medics and other practitioners attend”.

CONFERENCE FEEDBACK “Thanks for continually encouraging the delegates to visit the sponsors' stands.”

“The FMPA Conference was, without question, the best conference I have attended in the last 10 years: the organisers should be congratulated on developing such a wide-ranging and engaging programme. Throughout the two-day conference, knowledge and experienced speakers presented high quality lectures on topics of current importance: I am certain that everyone attending the Conference learnt something of value from every presentation.”

“Thanks very much …the conference was great! Very varied and thought-provoking topic.”

“I wanted to say how well the whole day was put together and how smoothly everything went - Credit to everyone involved and a massive well done from me.”

“Excellent day of learning and catching up with old friends at the FMPA Conference. Superb presentations with also a poignant reminder that as medics & professionals we have a duty of care to our players regarding mental health awareness.”

“I just wanted to drop you and your team a quick note to say thank you for an excellently run and organised conference. I attend a lot of conferences, and this was certainly one of the best. Look forward to seeing you next year.”

“Thank you for brilliantly putting together such a successful, rich and enlightening conference.”
