🔦 We are pleased to shine a spotlight on the CASES Occupational Performance Special Interest Group (OPSIG), a growing community of academics and practitioners dedicated to advancing sport and exercise science within physically demanding occupational settings.

👉 While sport and exercise science is often associated with athletic performance, its application extends far beyond traditional sporting environments.

, personnel, workers, and other occupational groups face significant physiological and psychological demands that closely mirror those experienced by elite athletes.

This special interest group was created to provide a forum for professionals working in this space, encouraging collaboration across disciplines including physiology, psychology, biomechanics, strength and conditioning, injury prevention, and rehabilitation.

The group welcomes members at all career stages and is committed to supporting practitioner development, strengthening research activity, and maintaining the high professional standards expected by CASES.
