Ehrenstein received the award at the winter training course in St. Anton in Austria, held for the 64th time this year. Around 200 doctors attend this renowned course each year to extend their knowledge of the latest developments in the theory and practice of sports medicine.
According to the organisers, the key element in the choice of Ehrenstein was not only the success on the pitch with winning the double but also especially the outstanding injury management achieved by the medical team at Bayer 04.
"This award is a great honour and is down to the team made up of my colleague Stefan Porten, our medical director Karl-Heinrich Dittmar and all the physiotherapists. It is confirmation of our day-to-day work," said Ehrenstein at the awards ceremony. "Our target is to look after the sportsmen and women to the optimum and also to enable them to make a fast, but above all, safe return to competitive sport."
