Successfully passing a criminal background check is required for onboarding to a sports medicine fellowship program, just like you experienced when you entered residency training. Your interviewers ask this question to ensure that you would be able to pass any required state or federal background checks required by their institution.

"I am ready to fully comply with any background and verification checks required for your sports medicine fellowship program and the facilities I would be practicing at. I have clean criminal and driving records."

If you can pass a criminal record check or education verification, explain that you have a clean record. If you have any blemishes on your records and cannot pass a criminal record check or education verification, be upfront about that in the interview process. The fellowship program will be more forgiving if you are honest about any marks on your background check.
"I would be happy to do a criminal background check and understand that you must do your due diligence to protect the safety of patients. I am completely comfortable with this."
