Derbyshire Institute Of Sport

‼️Female athletes! Are you training hard but still not seeing the progress you know you’re capable of? 👀

Peak performance isn’t just about working harder — it’s about understanding YOUR body.

On Saturday 6th of Jun, Derbyshire Institute of Sport x boobydoo are hosting a Women’s Personal Performance Day designed specifically for female athletes. 💪

This exclusive female-only event combines elite athlete testing and assessment, and education around one of the most overlooked areas in women’s sport: support.

For £110, you’ll receive:

✅Performance testing (strength, speed, power, agility & more)
✅Personal insights to improve your training
✅Specialist sports bra fitting with boobydoo
✅Female-specific education on breast health & support
✅Access to the wider DIS support network

📍 University of Derby Sports Centre – High Performance Unit
📅 Saturday 6th June 2026
⏰ 10am–1pm

Spaces are limited to ensure a high-quality experience for every athlete. To book your place, please use the link in our bio.

Congratulations Cameron!

Cameron has had a busy few weeks. First in Austria, Cameron competed in the Alpencup against athletes a few years older and narrowly missed the semifinal by 0.01s! He then competed in the Austrian SBX Junior Championships and after being the second fastest qualifier and winning his semifinal, he went on to win the final and is now the U13 Austrian Junior Champion! 🥇

Next to Switzerland. Cameron finished 4th in the Swiss SBX Junior Championships against some tough competition, however it was a close battle. Then in the Swiss U13 SBX Open Race, after another tough battle, Cameron finished 3rd and comes home with another medal! 🏂

Since joining DIS, Cameron has progressed through our Prep Squad, Development Squad and now our Performance Academy putting 100% effort into every session. The results of his hard work are on show! Well done Cameron 👏

Congratulations Izzy!

Izzy competed in her first event of the 2026 track & field season. Izzy spent little time throwing in the winter due to injury but her efforts in the gym put her in a position to PB by over a meter and further her existing Senior, U20, and U17 club records. Izzy will continue to work hard in preparation for the British University Championships in May. Well done Izzy! 🥇👏
