Partnership brings university and Alvalade closer together

The Faculty of Human Kinetics (FHK) is well known for its contribution to healthy human development across a variety of areas, most obviously sport.

With Sporting CP being one of Europe's most important sports institutions, a partnership between the two seems almost inevitable.

FHK president José Alves Dinis spoke about the deal between Alvalade and the faculty, penned this week in a move that opens up a wide range of possibilities: "We have students, both at undergraduate and post-graduate level who are doing their training at Sporting CP, in several different sports. As a university we can contribute to the players' well-being and transform that into benefits for the club."
