Our goal is to gain deeper insights into how sports are organized, managed, and promoted, along with their related psychological and physical aspects. We aim to analyze how human body tissues respond biomechanically to impacts and understand injury mechanisms from these forces. Additionally, we focus on improving athletic performance and strengthening the capabilities of sports and recreation organizations.
