(Damage Control)

Overview: Injury is every athlete’s dread – the instant hard-fought careers plunge from glory to gut-wrenching disaster. From the moment of damage, a small army of doctors, physios, surgeons, coaches and support teams swings into action. This series follows the extraordinary real-life drama of trauma, surgery, rehab and, for the lucky ones, return to glory. Every damaged athlete has a personal story – the shock of injury, the brutality of surgery, the burden of rehab and the emotional return to doing what they live for: playing elite competitive sport.
