Abstract

The 2025 World Congress on Science and Soccer (WCSS 2025), to be held in June in Glasgow, will bring together experts, researchers, and practitioners to delve into key areas of soccer science and professional practice. Embracing the overarching motto ‘Encourage Progress, Enhance Practice,’ the congress aims to serve as a catalyst for overcoming barriers and promoting the core values of sport – teamwork, fair play, equality, and inclusion – as drivers of research, innovation, and sustainable development in soccer. Reflecting this vision, Rangers FC and Celtic FC – Glasgow’s two iconic clubs, renowned for their on-field success, passionate support, and fierce rivalry – have united to support and host the congress at their legendary stadiums, Ibrox and Celtic Park.
