Abstract

This article provides a succinct but comprehensive review of the history of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine. Three time periods are described: the pre-academy era, the early years of podiatric sports medicine leading up to the academy’s founding, and the academy’s founding and the 1970s. An appreciation of the academy’s past facilitates understanding of its present state and future direction. (J Am Podiatr Med Assoc 93(4): 315-320, 2003)
