Please read the guidelines thoroughly before completing an application form.
Only national sports physical therapy organisations that are recognised by their national member organisation, who themselves are recognized by World Physiotherapy (WP) are eligible for full membership of the IFSPT. Only one national organisation of Sports Physical Therapy per country can be eligible for membership.
Application Process
- The country expresses interest in joining IFSPT by contacting Carlo Ramponi, Membership Committee Chair, and completes a registration form. Once completed the form is reviewed by the IFSPT Board.
- Upon acceptance of the country by the Executive Board of IFSPT, dependent upon fulfillment of the criteria for membership, the country will be sent an invoice for membership based on the number of members specified in the registration form. Potential new members will be reviewed twice yearly by the Executive Board. The membership fee will be adjusted to account for a member joining in the second half of the year.
- The IFSPT treasurer should receive payment of this amount in Euros with the addition of the bank's handling fee within two months.
- The country will then be deemed a financial member of IFSPT.
If considering membership, please contact Carlo Ramponi, Membership Committee Chair.
