British Journal of Sports Medicine
 Aims and Scope
The British Journal of Sports Medicine is an
international peer review journal covering the latest advances in
clinical practice and research. Topics include all aspects of sports
medicine, such as the management of sports injury, exercise physiology,
sports psychology, physiotherapy and the epidemiology of exercise and
health. Each issue includes selected summaries from
SportsMedUpdate, an evidence based journal watch service coordinated in
South Africa.
British Journal of Sports Medicine is the official journal of the
British Association of Sports and Exercise Medicine and has been
published since 1974.
A unique partnership between the Society for Tennis
Medicine and Science with the British Journal of Sports Medicine has
resulted in a dedicated issue of that journal on Tennis Medicine over
the past two years with all members receiving access to that issue of
tennis specific research. The first Tennis-Edition was published in May
2006 and is freely available to all website visitors. The next issue
was released in November 2007 and is accessible to STMS members only.
