Abstract
The field of sports cardiology has evolved substantially over the past 2 decades due to improved understanding of the athlete’s heart, causes of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in athletes, as well as differentiation between physiological cardiac remodelling and pathological cardiac conditions in athletic individuals. Application of this knowledge forms the basis of pre-participation screening (PPS)Keywords
