EFS Rebstein Relys on Strong Medical Partners: Berit Sportclinic and medfit Ostschweiz

EFS Rebstein is strengthening its youth development program and is relying on strong medical partners from the region: The AlBerit Sportclinic and medfit Ostschweiz in Heerbrugg will serve as the club’s medical partners going forward.

This collaboration brings together two key areas of athletic support: While we are responsible for sports medicine care, Medfit Ostschweiz provides sports physical therapy and supports the athletes, particularly during the rehabilitation process.

Professional Care—From the Initial Evaluation to the Comeback

The players of EFS Rebstein benefit from rapid access to modern sports medicine as well as comprehensive sports medicine and sports physical therapy care. In the event of health issues, Dr. Hanspeter Betschart, our chief physician at the Berit Sportclinic and Chief Medical Officer of Swiss Olympic, is on hand to assist along with his team. If surgical procedures become necessary, they can be performed at the Berit Klinik. This ensures seamless medical care.

Prevention as the Key to Long-Term Success

Both medical partners place great emphasis on prevention. Regular sports medicine and sports physical therapy checkups help identify potential overexertion and improper strain early on and reduce the risk of injury. After all, sustainable athletic development doesn’t begin after an injury, but rather with targeted preventive care.

Dr. Hanspeter Betschart, Chief Medical Officer at the Berit Sportclinic, is looking forward to the collaboration:

“We are very pleased to provide sports medicine support to EFS Rebstein in the future and to contribute our in-depth expertise. It is important to us not only that these young athletes become high-performing floor hockey players, but also that they remain healthy in the long term.”

Working Together for Healthy Talents and a Strong Future

EFS Rebstein is a young, passionate floorball talent incubator in the St. Gallen Rhine Valley. In a family-like atmosphere, the club aims to nurture talent and make floorball dreams come true. Children, teenagers, and young adults benefit from high-quality training in technique, tactics, and athleticism. At the same time, they are given as many opportunities as possible to gain competitive experience and further develop their athletic skills.
