Understanding injuries in youth athletes

Learn how to recognise which sporty kids are at risk of injury and how to get them safely back to play.

We're on a mission to raise awareness about why sporty kids need a different approach to recovery after injury.

Kids have different anatomy and injuries from adults, and need an alternative approach to treatment by health professionals who have experience in being able to accurately diagnose and rehabilitate.

Meet the founder 👋

Founder Angela Jackson is a highly experienced Young Athlete Consultant Physiotherapist who has worked with active kids and junior athletes for over 30 years.

Angela built a highly successful private clinic in Cheshire, UK, based around treating sporty kids and their families. She was that young, sporty child and through lack of awareness and the right information, her sporting career was cut short. Angela is on a mission to raise the awareness of how sporty kids have different anatomy, pathologies, and need an alternative approach to help them recover after injury, to support them to reach their sporting potential, and stay active for life.

Having a child with an injury can be a worrying time for both parents and children.

Kids are not mini adults! They sustain different injuries and require a different approach to treatment. However, this knowledge is rarely taught in the basic training of health professionals, so not all practitioners have the necessary skills to get your child safely back to sport.

Kids Back 2 Sport is your toolkit for rehabilitating sporty kids.

Who?
We are looking for passionate clinicians to join the Kids Back 2 Sport register and provide excellent rehabilitation to young athletes.
Why?
Our goal is for parents to feel confident in knowing where to take their injured child, and help them get safely back to sport and play.
How?
Complete the toolkit, provide evidence of post graduate CPD/experience in MSK Paediatrics, or past work with young athletes.

Learn how to recognise which sporty kids are at risk of injury.

Physiotherapy practitioners have the knowledge to assess and diagnose your child to help them get safely back to sport and play.

The practitioners of the Kids Back 2 Sport register want to help share their knowledge with you and your child, so you can support them to stay injury-free and become the best they can be.
