Return to Play

Patrick’s Story

Ice hockey has been a way of life for Patrick since childhood. His passion for the sport and the special bond he enjoys with his teammates make it difficult for him to cope with the turmoil and isolation of being injured. Rehabilitation after 2 hip operations failed to prepare him for the rigors of this intense contact sport on ice. Bill Knowles, a world-renowned athletic development coach, uses ‘the power of play’ and reconditioning to prepare Patrick’s mind and body for return to competitive sport, without pain. Professor Jacques Menetrey, a ‘Return to Play’ expert, highlights the importance for individuals to be exposed to a broad range of movement experiences that develop a rich ‘movement vocabulary’ that prepares them not only for sport but also for life.
