What is the Sport Wales Institute?
The Sport Wales Institute is a team of professionals, from across lots of disciplines, working together to help Welsh athletes achieve success on the world stage - as well as in their lives outside sport.
Our team is made up of science & medicine practitioners and performance advisors, together with assistants from the Welsh Institute of Performance Science (WIPS).
Our practitioners have worked all over the world, at major multi-sport games and at international training camps. Providing support to national governing bodies of sport, the team’s work helped Wales achieve its most successful Commonwealth Games ever in 2018 when it returned home with 36 medals – 10 gold,12 silver and 14 bronze.
The team also support British athletes on UK Sport World Class Programmes based in Wales, or when they return to Wales, to deliver at Olympic and Paralympic Games.
