The European Physical Education Review (EPER) is an influential international journal that has been shaping scholarly conversation in physical education and sport pedagogy since its inception in 1995. Published quarterly by SAGE Publications, EPER brings together cutting‑edge research that addresses the complexities and challenges of physical education in educational, social, and cultural settings. As a multidisciplinary journal, EPER spans a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from theoretical frameworks of embodiment and learning to practical investigations of curriculum implementation and teacher education. It also explores how changes in society — including globalization, policy reform, and public health priorities — influence the practice and meaning of physical activity in schools and communities. The journal is committed to rigorous scholarship that integrates diverse methodologies and international perspectives, promoting the advancement of knowledge that can inform both academic inquiry and professional practice. Articles published in EPER contribute to ongoing debates about what physical education should achieve, how it can be effectively taught, and how learners experience and interpret movement practices. By engaging with both qualitative and quantitative research, conceptual analysis, and critical reflection, the journal plays a central role in advancing the field and supporting practitioners, policymakers, and researchers in navigating contemporary educational landscapes. EPER is indexed in major databases and has a strong citation footprint, reflecting its relevance and impact across physical education, pedagogy, sport studies, and allied disciplines.
