Seminar: Steps to success at the Hong Kong Sevens - optimising rugby performance and player welfare

Professors from the University of Exeter invite you to attend a special event on Thursday 4 April in Hong Kong.


Event details

To achieve peak performance, especially under the pressures of a tournament setting, players need to prepare and recover effectively physically and mentally. Sport science research at the University of Exeter is informing evidence-based strategies to reduce injury risk, perform optimally when under extreme pressure and provide the right nutrition and nutraceuticals to speed recovery and sustain performance.

One such injury risk is concussion; a common sporting injury which often goes unnoticed with the effects not being fully understood. Many make a full recovery but some experience problems, especially if they have not recovered from a previous injury. Professor Huw Williams explains why understanding the effects of concussion and having a plan to recover and then return to play is so important.

Time: 7.30pm – 9.30pm (presentation to start at 7.45pm)
