New BISp Project CulTT-LA28 Launched

The Department of Sport and Exercise Psychology has received funding from the Federal Institute for Sports Science (BISp) to implement the transfer project “CuLTT-LA28 – Coaching and Leadership Culture of the German Gymnastics Team – Men’s Artistic Gymnastics – On the Road to LA 2028.” From May 2026 to July 2027, Sebastian Brückner will support the national team on its path to Olympic qualification to support the necessary performance development in context of the current generational shift within the team. The CulTT-LA28 project builds on the successful collaboration with German Gymnastics within the CULTurn project. Results from the intervention process will directly be incorporated into the training and preparation process for Olympic qualification at the 2027 World Championships in China. The Münster-based team, led by Maike Tietjens, will work closely with athletes, coaches, the head coach, the sports psychologist, and other stakeholders of the men’s artistic gymnastics national team.
