Academic Institutions
We aim to collaborate with leading researchers and experts from universities and research institutes to conduct groundbreaking studies on topics such as athletic development, pelvic health, breast health, menstrual cycle, reproductive health, and nutrition specific to women soccer players. We facilitate dialogue between practitioners and researchers and believe that applied experience informs scientific knowledge.
Sports Technology Companies
We work alongside cutting-edge sports technology companies to develop and test innovative tools, wearables, and software applications tailored to the unique needs of women and girl soccer players. These collaborations aim to integrate the latest advancements in sports technology into applied applications that can be used to advance player support across the developmental pathway.
Teams and Organizations
We partner with professional teams and organizations, both domestically and internationally, to conduct applied research projects aimed at optimizing performance strategies for women players. By working directly with elite players and staff, we ensure our research findings are directly applicable to the highest levels of competition.
