Dear reader,

Welcome to the Journal of Qualitative Research in Sports Studies ISSN 1754-2375. This journal presents a valuable opportunity for undergraduates and postgraduates to write mentored publications of their research activities in the sport’s world.

The papers are externally reviewed by academics from other institutions/other subject areas who share a similar vision for encouraging student confidence in their academic writing and encouraging greater involvement with researching sport from a qualitative standpoint.

Towards these ends the journal has three central aims which we, the Editorial Board, hope the reader will recognise as educationally valuable in terms of academic quality and student centred support in academia:

(a) To showcase and share student research at either undergraduate or postgraduate level.

(b) Through a process of mentoring and external review, help to improve student’s confidence to present their ideas formally.

(c) To create a contemporary resource of qualitative research within the sports world which is accessible to students and informs their ongoing investigations.

If you have any enquiries for potential submission or topic research please do not hesitate to contact the authors or the editors:
