Join us for a half-day networking event at St Mary’s University, London, where academics, practitioners, athletes, and coaches come together to explore research opportunities in adolescent sports nutrition. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect and collaborate, shaping the future of youth sports practice and research.
The event is for anyone with an interest in this under-researched area of sports science. We've curated a half-day programme with industry experts across the multiple disciplines of sports sciences and sports medicine. The format and agenda for the event are designed to encourage attendees to be able to engage openly with each other on the challenges and opportunities in this area and make new connections.
