About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

During puberty, children experience a growth spurt that makes them bigger, stronger, and faster. Unfortunately, this period also brings an increased risk for injuries.

Moreover, since puberty begins at different ages for each child, there can be substantial differences in physical maturity within the same group or team.

In this webinar, Dr. Pieter Vansteenkiste will explain how to assess physical maturity, and how to use this information for injury prevention, motor development, and talent detection.
