Professor Robyn Jones, Professor Gareth Irwin, Professor Brendon Cropley, Professor Sheldon Hanton and Professor Kevin Morgan

Research undertaken at the Cardiff School of Sport and Health Sciences has consistently informed the development and education of coaches, academics, sport scientists and students, both nationally and internationally. This includes organisations such as the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences, the Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique, Olympiatoppen (the Norwegian Olympic and Paralympic Committee), and High Performance Sport New Zealand, in addition to national governing bodies such as the Football Association, British Gymnastics, the Welsh Rugby Union, the Football Association of Wales Trust, British Canoe Union, Swim Wales, Welsh Rowing, Volleyball Wales, Hockey Wales, and the Gaelic Athletic Association. The research also underpins extensive HEI subject provision both in the UK and internationally.
