The Sport Industry Research Centre

The Sport Industry Research Centre is a legacy of the 1991 World Student Games.  Without that event neither of Sheffield’s two universities would have invested in sport-related teaching and research.  Today the Centre has a full time staff of 17 and a turnover in excess of £1m.  In 2008 we were ranked fourth best university in the UK for the quality of our research in sport.  The success of our team is down to a young and motivated team of staff who buy in to what we are trying to achieve.  As in sport, good teams pull together for each other, put themselves on the line for each other, and trust each other.  As we see ourselves as being young and up and coming, we are particularly pleased to sponsor the Young Team of the Year award
