Abstract
The Sports Physiotherapy special interest group has recently developed and released the Sports Physiotherapy Code of Conduct (SPCC). The SPCC is unique both nationally and internationally. Within NZ this is the first physiotherapy special interest group to have such a code written and adopted specifically for their particular area. The SPCC displaces the overarching code of ethic for all physiotherapists in NZ; the cornerstone of ethical guidance for physiotherapists will always remain the Aotearoa New Zealand Physiotherapy Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct. However the SPCC seeks to explain and apply the principles found in that code to the sports area.
