Evolving the Control-Chaos Continuum: Part 2-Shifting "Attention" to Progress On-Pitch Rehabilitation.

On-pitch rehabilitation is key to supporting return to sport in elite soccer (football). The () guides practitioners through the sport-specific components of return to sport. There is a need to update the framework with recent research in injury neurophysiology, soccer performance, and coaching science. How do practitioners integrate the insights from injury neurophysiology, soccer performance, and coaching science discussed in part 1 of this 2-part series into an updated version of the , to enhance the planning and execution of on-pitch rehabilitation for elite soccer players? The revised framework emphasizes the design and delivery of progressive training in increasingly conditions. The updated framework supports practitioners to incorporate elements of visual-cognitive challenges, attentional challenges, decision making, and progression representation of the game model when players are preparing to return to sport. The updated outlines training progression from , which involves returning to on-pitch linear running, to , which simulates the team environment at game speed. The phase can be tailored to support players during their reintegration into team training. The model is adaptable for both short- and long-term injuries, integrating physical-cognitive load monitoring and strength and power diagnostics to enhance decision making throughout return to sport. .
