I had the pleasure of being invited to become a member of the Olympic Council's Medical Team by Dr. Joe Cumiskey, currently President of the European Federation of Sports Medicine Associations and member of the International Olympic Committee, back in 1999, so it is a great honour and privilege to be part of the Olympic Team. It is a big responsibility but one I relish.
