Testimonials
Gerry Sutcliffe - Minister of Sport
“To have a facility like this on your doorstep will be a massive boost to the city. In terms of reputation it will help Southampton as far as the UK is concerned because people will acknowledge it as a centre of excellence, somewhere where research is done that can help everybody react throughout the country.”
Jonathan Fearne - JF Multisport Coaching
“I have been using Solent’s facilities to have athletes tested and all of my clients have been so impressed with the level of professionalism that all the staff and students have shown. As a coach my relationship with the University staff has been very strong, they continue to improve their testing procedures and are also looking at new and advanced tests. I feel very fortunate to be able to use the University and its staff to give my athletes the best I can as a coach. Having used the University for over a year I can see clear improvements in my own fitness from their detailed testing.”
Eddie Howe - Former Manager AFC Bournemouth
“We are very appreciative here at AFC Bournemouth for the work carried out by the staff and students in the Sports Science department at Solent. They perform detailed fitness tests throughout the season as well as offering nutritional advice and psychology sessions. The facilities they have are excellent and can only benefit AFC Bournemouth.”
