What makes Sport & Exercise Psychology at Worcester special? From the Olympic success of TeamGB to the mind-games of Muhammad Ali, psychology has always played a key role in ensuring sporting success. Sports psychologists work across both team and individual sports, coaching at the mind-body interface to maximise performance when it really counts. At Worcester, you will explore how psychology has the power to help an individual fulfil their potential at all levels of sport, whether that be elite athletes gunning for gold, or helping groups within wider society develop the confidence to adopt a healthy and active lifestyle.
