Abstract
Physicians' role in team sports goes beyond the traditional 'Doc' who attends the game for stitching and primary injury management. Injury and illness prevention, ongoing supervision of rehabilitation, education, fitness evaluation, and training prescription are roles which have often fallen, by default, to paramedicals. The author recounts his experience in medical supervision of major junior hockey in the Western Hockey League.Year: 1985 PMID: 21274088 PMCID: PMC2327567
