Dr Gaylene McKay has been the Opals (Australian Women’s Basketball Team) Physiotherapist for 7 years and travelled with them many times for camps and tournaments. But this year she had the privilege of supporting them in Tokyo for the 2020 Olympics!
Now that she’s back in Australia we asked her to spend some of her hotel quarantine time telling us a bit about the experience . . . .
While Dr Gaylene McKay, our Managing Director and the Lead Physiotherapist for the Opals, is now back in Australia and in quarantine, she did manage to send through a few last pics from her time at the Olympics.
More great photos from the Olympics thanks to Alphington Sports Medicine’s Managing Director & Opals Lead Physiotherapist, Dr Gaylene McKay.

From the 26th of June to the 18th July I spent 3 fortunate weeks at the Australian Institute of Sport European Training Centre, Gavirate Italy. My role was to tend to the health needs of all Australian athletes currently training and competing in Europe.
