sportsmed announces official partnership with Port Adelaide Football Club
16 JUL 2025: sportsmed is proud to announce its official partnership with Port Adelaide Football Club. This formalises a relationship that has seen the multidisciplinary medical services provider trusted by Port Adelaide’s athletes for many years.
The partnership further reinforces the organisation’s reputation as South Australia’s leaders in sports medicine, orthopaedic care, physiotherapy and podiatry.
sportsmed CEO Tim Payze said, “This is a natural evolution of a long-standing relationship and a powerful endorsement of the care sportsmed provides every day. While our team is trusted to care for athletes competing at the highest level, everyday Australians can feel confident that they’re accessing the same clinical expertise and commitment to excellence”.
“Whether you’re recovering from a knee reconstruction, considering a hip replacement, managing a long-term injury, getting moving with our highly experienced physiotherapists or seeing one of our podiatrists, every patient benefits from the same evidence-based approach that underpins elite sport.”
sportsmed recognises the vital role sport plays in supporting physical health, community wellbeing and social connection.
“We’re incredibly proud to partner with a club that has such a rich history and deep connection with South Australians. Port Adelaide has built its reputation over generations through resilience, professionalism and striving for excellence – values that closely align with sportsmed,” said Payze. “We look forward to further supporting both the AFL and AFLW teams and the Port Adelaide Community.”
While high-performance sport showcases sportsmed’s expertise, its focus extends far beyond the sporting arena. Every day, sportsmed’s surgeons, sports doctors, physiotherapists and podiatrists help South Australians overcome injury, improve mobility and return to the activities that matter most – whether that’s playing local sport, keeping up with grandchildren or simply living pain free. sportsmed provides specialist care for patients of every age and ability in a collaborative environment that focuses on delivering better clinical outcomes.
Payze says, “The same expertise trusted by top athletes is available to anyone wanting to move with confidence and get more out of life.”
From professional footballers to everyday athletes, sportsmed delivers the same level of care with one goal: helping every patient perform at their best.
