Introduction
BASES Fellowship should be considered an accolade that individuals aspire to and an honour that people are proud of and is valued. For 'FBASES' to be placed after someone's name, it should denote a passion and commitment for BASES and sport and exercise sciences. It is also expected that BASES Fellows will act as leaders and ambassadors for the Association.
