Aims & Scope
Sports Biomechanics is the scientific journal of the International Society of Biomechanics in Sports (ISBS), the only international society dedicated to biomechanics in sports. The journal sets out to generate knowledge to improve sports performance and reduce the incidence of injury, and to communicate this knowledge to sports scientists, coaches, and sports participants.
Sports Biomechanics is unique in its emphasis on sports techniques and sports injuries. As well as maintaining scientific rigour, there is a strong editorial emphasis on 'reader friendliness' By emphasising the practical implications and applications of research in sports biomechanics, the journal seeks to benefit sports practitioners directly. Sports Biomechanics publishes papers in four sections: Original Research, Reviews, Teaching, and New Methods and Theoretical Perspectives.
