BBSRC | Testing England Cricket athletes: performance and vision @bbsrcmedia | Uploaded December 2015 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
BBSRC funded scientists at the University of Bradford have been working with elite athletes including the England Women’s Cricket team to study how vision may contribute to excellence in sport.
The researchers, working with colleagues at Liverpool John Moores University and the University of St Andrews, want to know if superior vision gives top athletes an edge, possibly because great eyesight can give them more time to react.
But it’s not just about top level sport. By understanding how vision and skills can be developed could help create new ways to deal with injuries or disease.
