About the Journal

International Journal of Physical Education and Sports Sciences (IJPESS)
Scope and Focus
The International Journal of Physical Education and Sports Sciences (IJPESS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal committed to advancing scholarship and professional practice in the fields of physical education, human movement science, exercise physiology, sports psychology, biomechanics, sports medicine, athletic training, and sports management. The journal provides an inclusive platform for researchers, educators, practitioners, and policymakers to explore, share, and critically examine contemporary issues, pedagogical innovations, scientific breakthroughs, and socio-cultural dynamics affecting physical education and sports globally.

The scope of IJPESS encompasses both theoretical and empirical studies, ranging from foundational and applied research to action-based and community-engaged investigations. It welcomes interdisciplinary contributions that examine the role of physical education and sports in health promotion, youth development, inclusive education, talent identification, rehabilitation, leadership, and global sporting events. Articles that incorporate perspectives from educational theory, sociology, psychology, nutrition, and technology integration in sports and movement education are strongly encouraged.

The journal particularly aims to spotlight emerging research from diverse contexts—including but not limited to indigenous sports practices, grassroots development programs, physical education in developing nations, and culturally responsive pedagogy in movement education. By bridging the gap between research and practice, IJPESS seeks to contribute to policy formulation, curriculum innovation, and the professional development of physical educators and sports scientists.

Each issue strives to present original research articles, systematic reviews, best practice reports, case studies, and theoretical papers that uphold rigorous academic standards and relevance to contemporary debates in physical education and sports sciences.
