sports medicine  

Definition(s)

  • The sports medicine discipline can be traced to the 1928 Winter Olympic Games in St Moritz, Switzerland, and the founding of the Association Internationale Médico-Sportive. German physicians were to the fore of this movement, with sports medicine in English-speaking nations developing somewhat more slowly.
