“Across the country, the COPSI Network has continued to support high performance athletes and coaches from a distance during the confinement period. Our experts have a front row seat to witness the challenges and needs that arise as we approach the resumption of activities. All members of the network are currently working on the reopening of their facilities and resuming services . We are working to ensure the return is in accordance with national and provincial health guidelines and to create a healthy and safe training environment. The best way to support athletes is to help them stay healthy. The COPSI Network and its experts are committed to continue our collaboration with the Return to Sport Task Force. We will continue to work closely with medical experts to monitor the situation going forward and will adjust our Return to Sport framework appropriately.”
