Description

Can technology make you a better athlete?

The Sports Science program dives into how cutting-edge tools and data analysis are revolutionising athletic performance. Students test, train, and track results while exploring the science of sport through real-time feedback and performance-enhancing technologies. Using the latest in sports tech including timing gates, force jump plates, Rox Pro, VR training systems, heart rate monitors, and CPR manikins – students engage in sports drills designed to enhance skill and performance while collecting and analysing biometric data.

By exploring anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics they can relate to sport and human movement, applying scientific principles to improve results. Using professional-grade equipment to simulate the work of sports scientists, trainers, and health professionals, students test and compete in real time, using leaderboards and benchmarks to monitor individual and group progress. This program not only boosts physical literacy and data skills but also opens up career pathway conversations in fields such as physiotherapy, strength and conditioning, sports analytics, and health technology.
