*PREMANAND SATYA PAUL KUMAR PONUGUPATI¹ (1. VICE- PRESIDENT , NAPESS)

AbstractThis study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of sustainability research in sports science between 2015 and 2025, using data sourced from the Scopus database. A total of 67 documents, identified through the keywords “sustainable sports” and “sustainability sports science,” were analysed using Biblioshiny in R Studio to assess publication trends, key sources, country contributions, and collaboration networks. Results indicate a steady increase in scientific output, particularly since 2020, with an annual growth rate of 7.18%. The journal Sustainability (Switzerland) emerged as the leading publication outlet, while Spain, Australia, and the USA were the top contributing countries. International collaborations were prominent, highlighting the global and interdisciplinary nature of the field. The findings emphasize the growing importance of integrating sustainability principles into sports science to address environmental, social, and economic challenges. The study concludes by underscoring the vital role sports science plays in supporting sustainable development goals through research, practice, and policy, and offers recommendations for fostering further interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge sharing. Keywords: Sustainability in Sports Science, Bibliometric Analysis.
