Iran’s Sport Science Research Institute Joins Forces to Organize the Exciting WCKSS Event

The World Congress on Kinesiology and Sport Science (WCKSS) is set to take place in Jeju Island, South Korea, from October 25 to 27, 2025. This significant event will be organized through a collaboration between the Sport Science Research Institute (SSRI) of Iran and the Asian Society of Kinesiology. This congress aims to promote global knowledge exchange in the fields of kinesiology and sport science.

As the official representative for this congress, the SSRI will oversee various Iranian scientific research presentations at the event, as reported by IRNA. The congress will cover a wide array of topics, ensuring a comprehensive exploration of contemporary issues in the field.

Key Topics at the Congress

The WCKSS will focus on several critical areas, including:

  • Sport Management
  • Psychology of Sport and Exercise
  • Sociological Analysis of Sports
  • Biomechanics and Sports Technologies
  • Physiology and Biochemistry of Exercise
  • Sports Nutrition
  • Metabolism and Obesity
  • Sports Medicine
  • Rehabilitation
  • Adaptive Exercises

The primary goal of the 2025 World Congress on Kinesiology and Sport Science is to foster a global exchange of knowledge while striving for a unified, globally recognized nomenclature within the fields of human movement, physical activity, exercise, and sport.

Meeting Formats

The congress will feature two distinct meeting formats to facilitate in-depth discussions:

  1. Traditional Scientific Conference: This format will focus on advancements in kinesiology and sport science.
  2. Visionary Forum: This forum will explore the socio-cultural, historical, and philosophical dimensions of the field.

International Conference on Kinesiology and Sport Science

The 9th Annual Meeting of the Asian Society of Kinesiology (ASK) in 2025 will be co-hosted with the 15th International Conference on Kinesiology and Sport Science. This collaborative event has received joint support from several prestigious organizations, including:

  • International Society of Adaptive Medicine (ICANS)
  • Asian South-Pacific Association of Sport Psychology (ASPASP)
  • Japanese Society of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine (JSPFSM)
  • American Kinesiology Association (AKA)

The goal of this collaboration is to unite national-level societies in advancing kinesiology and sports science globally. Additionally, it seeks to establish a consensus on a unified nomenclature for the fields of human movement, physical activity, exercise, and sport.

Kinesiology and Sport Science (KaSS) Forum 2025

The KaSS Forum will convene plenary sessions that feature keynote addresses, thematic symposia, and panel discussions. These sessions will cover:

  • The historical evolution of kinesiology and sport science
  • The current state of research and practices
  • Future trajectories and developments in the field

Furthermore, the forum will discuss strategic pathways to establish a unique academic nomenclature for kinesiology and sport science. One of the proposed steps includes the foundational processes for the tentative Federation of International Society of Sport, Physical Activity, and Kinesiology.
