Aussie-FIT is funded by Healthway (grant number 31953) and was developed by a team of physical activity and health researchers, led by Curtin University in partnership with University of Glasgow, Edith Cowan University and University of Newcastle.
Aussie-FIT builds on the Football Fans in Training (FFIT) program, the development and evaluation of which was undertaken by a research team led by the University of Glasgow with funding from various grants including a Medical Research Council (MRC) grant (reference number MC_UU_12017/3), a Chief Scientist Office (CSO) grant (reference number CZG/2/504), and a National Institute for Health Research grant (NIHR) (reference number 09/3010/06). The development and evaluation of FFIT was facilitated through partnership working with the Scottish Professional Football League Trust (SPFLT). We gratefully acknowledge some source material from the Nutrition & Dietetic Department, NHS Forth Valley and Men’s Health Clinic, Camelon, Falkirk. The program development is described in Gray et al (2013), the results of the program evaluation are reported in Wyke et al (2015) and Hunt et al (2014).
