Dino Murić, 3^rd year physiotherapy student of Alma Mater and member of the basketball team KK Šenčur GGD explores the effectiveness of the multi-component physiotherapy program on the functional abilities and pain in the top basketball player Zoran Dragič, who is recovering after another damage to the front crossbone. Research is being done under the mentorship of mag. Tine Kovačič (lecturer in physiotherapy at Alma Mater, and also head of medical rehabilitation in CUDV Dobrna, as well as clinical advisor for the fun fitness program of the Special Olympics for Europe and Eurasia).

Mag. Tine Kovačič introduces all physiotherapy students under his auspices with a great deal of responsibility in scientific research work, emphasizing that research also requires interdisciplinary collaboration with numerous profiles from fitness trainers to kinesiologists, as well as in practice itself. "Dino Murić has been cooperating with Zoran's fitness trainer Anže Maček during the course of his studies and is also strongly involved in physiotherapy practice of the top basketball player, taking into account the principles with evidence of supported practice and thus, by means of specific physiotherapeutic procedures. This weekend they met in Ljubljana and performed the qualitative part of the study (integration of methods), "explained mag. Tine Kovačič.

Mentor mag. Tine Kovačič emphasized that by analyzing the semi-structured interview, we will gain a deeper insight into Dragič's personal position, opinion and experience during participation in the multi-component physiotherapy program in the second rehabilitation period after the damage of the front crossbone. Dino Muric said that in the study they also wanted to check if the functional ability (muscle strength, strength, and functional stability) and the pain of the two lower extremities after the 8 - week multi - component physiotherapy program had changed and how it had changed.
