Partnership until 2020 for Alvalade athletes living in the north of the country

Similarly to the protocol agreed with Fisiomar in  Póvoa do Varzim, Sporting CP has closed a deal with Fisiojoane, located in Santo Tirso and Guimarães. The objective of the new relationship is to provide services to atheres who live and train in the north of the country, in support of the club's medical department.

Sporting CP's Sílvia Saiote was on hand to reflect on the deal: "This protocol comes from the identification of a need for support for out athletes in the north of the country. This partnership enables to club to provide additional services, in addition to those we have in Alvalade. Fisiojoane is very well known and was recommended by Sara Moreira, so we are really proud of this relationship."

Clinical director Carla Mendes also commented on the protocol: "We want to hit at those top levels and this protocol can contribute to that, although some of our athletes are already involved in the top competitions. I think this is a good deal for and for Fisiojoana. Having a clinic nearer to where you live and train brings that extra bit of value."
