Abstract

Traditional academic publishing models are inefficient, costly, and often inaccessible to those in applied settings. This is prohibitive for all stakeholders, especially in the field of sports medicine, where evidence-based policies and interventions can be lifesaving. The Journal of Injury & Illness Prevention in Sport (JiiPS) is a new academic journal established to address these challenges through a transparent, efficient, and ethical model. JiiPS offers an expedited peer-review processing, achievable through compensating reviewers, whilst removing formatting requirements to aid authors. Furthermore, JiiPS is gold open-access, supporting timely research dissemination, benefiting early-career researchers and practitioners without institutional access. By closing the research-to-practice gap, JiiPS aims to enhance the real-world impact of sports science and medicine research, inviting the community to join this mission.
