Mary will be presenting a short paper and a 90min workshop at the Queensland Branch State Conference of Sports Medicine Australia in February 2010.

‘I am very excited to have the opportunity to speak and work with the medical professionals caring for our athletes’, said Mary.  ‘The pelvic floor problems in the female athletic population are under identified and present unique challenges for management.  Teaching medical and training professionals to identify, refer and modify programs for their female athletes at risk will bring health and performance benefits and reduce a life long legacy of pelvic floor problems after a woman’s sporting career is over.’

Members of Sports Medicine Australia can register through the Queensland branch.  The conference is on the weekend of February 6/7, 2010 at the Novotel Twin Waters Resort on the Sunshine Coast north of Brisbane.
