Research-informed consultancy

Committed to an evidence-based practice model, all of the support we provide is underpinned by academic knowledge and understanding.

We regularly conduct research and use the latest scientific knowledge to ensure that our services are of the highest quality. Our applied research has been presented at conferences and workshops nationally and internationally to a range of audiences.

Examples of our applied research include:

  • Investigating the Relative Age Effect, a season-of-birth bias in junior footballers 
  • The physiology of a Masters aged race-walking World-Record holder 
  • An eight-week plyometric training programme for skilled adolescent golfers
  • Assessing representative task design in cricket batting: comparing an in-situ and laboratory-based task.
