Welcome to the British Society of Sports History!
We actively encourage and support sports history in the UK and beyond, through academic research and community projects, and by supporting individual enthusiasts. We collaborate with the museum and heritage sector, with higher and further education institutions, and the broader public media. Every year we look forward to bringing our membership together at our annual conference.
What do we do?
