Professor Craig Mahoney, Principal & Vice-Chancellor of UWS and Chair of British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS), told the Celtic website: “I am delighted that UWS’s sports and exercise science team has been recognised and selected to partner with one of Scotland’s leading football clubs, Celtic FC.
“The impact and importance of sport and exercise is something we promote widely at UWS, not only via our first-class research, but also in our student experience. It is fantastic to see the unique opportunities the partnership will provide our PhD students.”
Celtic continue to strive for the very best for their young athletes. Now, more than ever, Celtic must rely on the next generation of young talent to make their own mark on the first team.
