More than 50 people attended the ‘Physical Exercise and Fatigue Conference’ organised by the Sports Biomechanics Research Group (GIBD) of the University of Valencia on Tuesday 16 May. The main objective of the conference was to transfer the results of their latest research to the participants of these studies, as well as to students, athletes and the general public in the town of Ontinyent and municipalities of the Vall of Albaida and surrounding areas.

The conference consisted of five presentations by doctoral students at the University of Valencia and a guest lecture by Dr. Javier Olaya Cuartero, professor of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences at the University of Alicante.

The Faculty of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences, the Department of Physical and Sports Education and the Ontinyent City Hall were present at this conference showing their support. Of course, we would like to thank all the attendees who once again filled the Aula Magna of the Ontinyent Campus.

This conference was funded by a grant for emerging research groups (GE 2023; CIGE/2022/124) from the Conselleria de Educación, Universidades y Empleo, awarded to Dr. Roberto Sanchis Sanchis, professor at the FCAFE (Universitat de València).
