Professional teams
A professional career is a sequence of employers. Each one builds its own medical file, and at the end of the career the athlete is the only person without a complete copy of their own history.
The person's record is live today. The console for this sector is not.
Employment by a club is not ownership of an athlete's record.
How this works now
Not a caricature, this is the ordinary version of it, and it repeats every year.
- Each club keeps its own medical file, in its own software, under its own retention rules.
- A trade transfers a negotiated summary, not the athlete's full history, and rarely the raw records.
- Physicals repeat at every move because the previous imaging, labs and notes are not reachable.
- After retirement, the athlete requests records from former employers one by one, if they still exist.
What EVORA puts in its place
Each step is one decision, made by the person whose record it is.
- 01
One career-long record, held by the athlete
Imaging, surgical reports, labs, medications, concussion history, rehabilitation and workload notes accumulate in the athlete's own record, across every club and every season.
- 02
A club is granted access, not given the file
On signing, the athlete grants the club's medical staff a scoped, dated window. The club's own notes are written back into the athlete's record as they are made.
- 03
Roles are separated inside the club
Team physician, physiotherapist, performance staff, and front-office roles each receive a different view. Contract and roster decisions do not require clinical content.
- 04
A trade closes one window and opens another
The previous club's grant ends on the transfer date. The new club receives its own scoped grant. The history itself never moves, because it was never held by a club.
- 05
The athlete can prove what happened
Every view, every write-back, every grant opened and closed is in the athlete's access history, useful long after a career, for insurance, disability or ordinary care.
- 06
Retirement is not a reset
When the last contract ends, the athlete keeps a complete, portable record: the same file their next physician can read on day one.
Roles and limits
Who may see what.
Being on a roster, a payroll or a staff list is context. It is never access.
| Role | Sees without asking | Only if the person grants it | Never sees |
|---|---|---|---|
| Team physicianClinical care during the contract. | Nothing by default; access begins with the athlete's grant. | Clinical areas relevant to care, with write-back into the athlete's record. | The record after the grant ends, or areas the athlete kept closed. |
| Physiotherapy and performance staffRehabilitation and load management. | Availability and restriction status. | The active injury thread and load-relevant limits. | Diagnostics, mental-health notes or unrelated history. |
| Coaching staffSelection and match planning. | Available, limited or unavailable, with a date. | Nothing beyond that unless the athlete chooses to share it. | Clinical detail as a function of employment. |
| Front office and legalContracts, insurance and compliance. | Whether a required check is complete, as a status. | A specific document only where the athlete agrees it is required. | Browsing access to the medical record. |
| Player associationRepresents the athlete's interests. | Nothing without the athlete's instruction. | Whatever the athlete chooses to share for a dispute or a claim, scoped and dated. | Standing access to any athlete's record. |

What works today
These screens are real and you can open them now.
EVORA names no club, agency or players' association as a partner. Nothing on this page describes a live connection to a professional organization.
