Following the strategy implemented with the first opening of the FIFA Medical Centre of Excellence at the Schulthess clinic in Zurich in May 2005, the world governing body of football has proceeded to set up a network of FIFA Medical Centres of Excellence worldwide to ensure that players have access to high quality football medicine. Until now, ten football medicine centres have received the official accreditation after careful evaluation of their application by the FIFA Sports Medical Committee.
“We are proud to become a part of the FIFA Medical Network!” said Prof. Peter Angele, Director of the FIFA Medical Centre Regensburg.
“The accumulated body of knowledge in football medicine needs to be practically implemented so that players can fully benefit from state-of-the-art prevention which is the primary objective of FIFA,” said Prof. Jiri Dvorak, FIFA Chief Medical Officer and Chairman of F-MARC. “FIFA Medical Centres of Excellence like the University Medical Centre Regensburg ensure this. In addition, they ensure optimal treatment and rehabilitation, as well as educate the next generation of clinical specialists and scientists committed to football medicine.”
