BEFORE THE EXAMINATION<\/h4>\n

The health examination for a young athlete is a thorough analysis that requires the athlete\u2019s and the doctor\u2019s cooperation. We would like young athletes and their parents to study the health examination guide, recall the date of the previous health examination and fill in the questionnaire. On the day before the health examination, one can only engage in light physical activity although a day off would be preferable. The examination should be performed when you feel fit and healthy and there have not been any injuries recently. In case of an acute illness (fever, viruses and infections, coughing, rhinitis), at least two weeks must pass before the examination after you recover.<\/p>\n

DAY OF THE EXAMINATION<\/h4>\n

No workout should be performed on the day of the examination to make sure that its results are valid and the most representative of the young athlete\u2019s health.<\/p>\n

It is important that the young athlete has a meal 2\u20133 hours before the examination and is sufficiently hydrated during the day. Do not drink coffee, strong tea or alcohol on the day of the examination; the latter must also be avoided the day before.<\/p>\n

Please arrive at the facility for your health examination 15 minutes earlier to change and, if necessary, complete the questionnaire on site.<\/p>\n

PLEASE TAKE THE FOLLOWING WITH YOU FOR THE EXAMINATION:<\/h4>\n
