We are pleased to present a promising option for publication of your valuable work presented at the ICSS 2023 on a wider platform. Both, the already submitted abstract and even an extended paper of your presentation can be published in a special edition of the journal CISS (Current Issues in Sport Science; https://bop.unibe.ch/ciss). The CISS is the official journal of the Sport Scientific Societies of Austria and Switzerland. It is an international peer-reviewed platinum open-access journal publishing articles of high standard on all aspects of current sport and exercise science.

All publications (full articles and abstracts) will be indicated by a unique DOI-code and will be free of charge. The special issue related to the ICSS 2023 will be operated and supervised by Thomas Stöggl, Hans-Peter Wiesinger and Hermann Schwameder.

We kindly ask you to indicate your preference regarding an optional publication in the online journal CISS:

• I want to submit a full paper (around 4.000 words) of my topic presented at the ICSS 2023. The publication of the paper will be free of charge. We kindly ask you to upload the paper via the CISS website (further information regarding submission will be presented shortly). In case of submission and acceptance of a full paper, the related abstract will not be published in CISS. The deadline for submission is May 21, 2023. The paper will be reviewed by at least one expert in the field. Feedback will be provided not later than June 23, 2023. The special issue is planned to be published in September 2023.
• I want to publish the abstract in the current form submitted to ICSS 2023 (see Book of Abstracts). No further review will be executed prior to publication. The special issue is planned to be published in September 2023. The publication of the abstract will be free of charge.
• The abstract should not be published in CISS and I will not submit a full paper for publication in CISS.
