Premier Academy Injury Protocol - Return To Play Guidelines

Step 1 - Let the coaching staff know about the injury, location to body, how it happened and pain level or swelling level

Step 2 - If this is a new injury, Premier coaching staff will provide immediate access to a physiotherapy session at Coast Therapy which will be covered if the family does not have extended benefits. Coast Therapy will contact you within 12-24 hours.

Step 3 - Coast Therapy will provide treatment, and exercises to do at home - please do these twice per day!

Step 4 - Return to training is monitored by Coach Shawn, Coast Therapy and the Team’s physiotherapist Shawn Swartz

Step 5 - Attend training! We will slowly increase load % and when the player is ready, will be re-introduced to limited minutes within a training game or league game.


Note: A player MUST not ask to play games when they have not seen a professional practitioner. They must receive treatment, return to training and follow the return to play guidelines.
