The 4th annual FA Fitness and Conditioning Conference will take place at Lilleshall Hall National Sports Centre on 19th September 2004. The programme focuses on contemporary developments in football research and its application to football, and draws upon the knowledge of world renowned practitioners and academics.

Presentations will be delivered, amongst others, by Paul Winsper, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Newcastle United and Professors Paul Greenhaff and Jan Hoff, both involved with professional clubs on nutritional and conditioning aspects, respectively. The conference is always well attended so you are advised to enrol online to secure your place early.

Other conferences on offer aimed at coaches interested or involved in the fitness and conditioning of players will take place in September and November.

These will focus on the fundamentals in the physical and physiological development of young and youth players and also, more specifically, strength development for children and adolescents. Both of these one-day events involve both theoretical and practical sessions and look to provide the delegates with practical 'take home' messages. Apply online to avoid disappointment.
