Gordon Brett Strength & Conditioning Coach Munster Rugby will take the session and it will cover the 
following topic: Functional Screening for Athletic Performance and Injury Prevention. The workshop 
will cover how we can improve performance by ensuring that each major joint's ability to produce 
power and complete technical movement's are not being restricted through poor mobility/stability of 
the muscles that effect joint range of movement and power production. We will also cover how to 
assess athletes movements and discover compensations or limiting factors in their movement that 
may decrease performance or increase their risk of injury. The workshop will be both theory and 
practical based and is aimed at athletes and coaches of all levels. At the end the participants will have 
an understanding of how to screen and apply practical strategies to improve the performance of 
athletes and reduce their risk of injury.
