Return-to-Play Support
Return to play, done right.
Structured protocols, objective milestone criteria, and multi-discipline clearance sign-off — all in one system that creates a clear, auditable trail from injury to full competition.
The stakes of return
Premature return is one of the highest-risk decisions in sport — for the athlete and the provider. Rivalists creates a structured, data-backed process so clearance is never a guess, and every decision has a documented rationale.
Protocol Builder
Structured protocols. Clear criteria at every step.
Build phase-based RTP protocols once — with objective criteria that unlock each progression. No ambiguity. No subjective shortcuts. Every athlete follows the same rigorous standard, every time.
- Phase-based RTP protocol templates (concussion, ACL, ankle, etc.)
- Objective criteria required for each phase advancement
- Wearable data requirements built into phase gates
- Functional testing milestones (hop tests, LSI, etc.)
- Protocol assignment by injury type or provider
- Deviation logging when athletes fall outside criteria
Multi-Discipline Clearance
Every stakeholder aligned
before the athlete steps back.
Final clearance requires sign-off from every relevant discipline — medical, performance, coaching. Rivalists tracks each approval, captures the rationale, and keeps the entire decision auditable for as long as you need.
- Multi-role clearance sign-off workflow
- Required approvals by protocol phase
- Objective data summary at point of clearance
- Dissent and hold documentation
- Full audit trail from injury to competition
- Physician attestation and timestamp logging
