About Us

The doctors at Sydney Sportsmed Specialists have completed four years of post-graduate specialist training with the Australasian College of Sports Physicians. Our highly experienced specialists have worked with many professional teams, national teams and the NSW Institute of Sport. Whilst many of our patients are elite athletes, the benefits of our practice apply similarly to recreational sportspeople, school children and injured workers.

Facts and safety tips for rugby union players

laws; rule/law changes; and the management of general safety issues by administrators, coaches, referees and other personnel.
