University of Essex Human Performance Unit - Sport Science Visit

Posted on 18th Apr 2023

On Tuesday 18 April our 6th form Sport Science students took part in a three-hour human performance & life at University workshop. Starting at 9am, the session involved a talk from the University about courses that they offer and then a two-hour practical session looking at fitness testing.

Students took part in testing their power, speed, agility and hydration levels, getting to use some of the university's technology and resources. The students had opportunity to ask questions about university life and areas of interest from the world of sport science. Students had the opportunity to work with experts in the field and rub shoulders with current Olympic standard coaches.

All students seemed to enjoy the workshop, even if a little worried about their hydration levels! Thank you to Essex University Human Performance Unit, we hope to work with you again in the future.
