Special Interest Groups (SIG)
ECSS strives to continue a long tradition by providing thematically oriented interest groups as a platform for exchange and networking during its Annual Congress. The thematic orientation of a Special Interest Groups (SIGs) refers to both the major sports science disciplines and also special target groups or specific sub-topics of current relevance.
ECSS provides the meeting facilities for SIGs, including any technical requirements. Furthermore, ECSS regularly updates its website with information about the SIG groups and other relevant material produced by specific SIG groups.
Note: SIG applications are subject to applicants being ECSS Members for the core groups applying.
