Physiotherapists play a key role in the treatment of athletes of all sports during an Olympic Games and the provision of physiotherapy facilities is an essential part of the organisation of any major championships. This report presents useful data concerning the personnel and facilities the host city is expected to provide during an Olympics Games. It also highlights problems which several experienced physiotherapists have observed for many years. This paper will provide helpful information for those given the exciting yet onerous task of organising physiotherapy in the Olympic village for London 2012.
