Return-to-Play Workflow

An objective, criteria-gated pathway from acute diagnosis to sustained match availability.

    Criteria-Based Pathways & Defined Exit Gates

    Map each phase of the journey with objective exit criteria, testing benchmarks, and target clearance dates. Everyone works from the same clinical standard, removing friction and guesswork from daily progression.

    Connected Data & Daily Execution

    Medical, performance, and strength staff deliver against the same live criteria. External testing and tracking data sync directly into each gate—eliminating double-entry so staff can focus on the athlete.

    Early Delay Detection & Dynamic Timelines

    Return dates continuously recalculate as physical milestones are met or stalled. Flag trajectory drift and bottlenecked criteria weeks before target fixtures, eliminating surprises between the training room and the front office.
