Reinhard Daugs (born December 15, 1946 , † October 4, 2003 in Martinique ) was a German sports scientist and university professor .

Life

After receiving his doctorate in 1978, Daugs worked as a professor at the Free University of Berlin , and in 1987 he became professor for sports science at Saarland University and head of the sports science institute.

Daugs' research areas included motor learning, balance, the use of video technology and new media in sport. He dealt with the topic of "self-observation and self-control of our movements" and led, among other things, scientific projects on "Execution variability and constant results in hit-oriented throwing movements" on the "Influence of conditional loads on balance regulation while cycling". In 2000 he brought out the work “Evaluation of sports motor measurement station training in top sport”.

From 1994 to 1996 Daugs was Dean of the Philosophical Faculty at Saarland University and from 1999 to 2001 first Vice President of the university. He was significantly involved in the establishment and management of the Virtual Saar University (VISU) and was a founding member and first deputy chairman of the Saar Science Forum.

In 1992 he became a member of the appointment commission set up by the Federal Ministry of the Interior to appoint the 16 leading scientists of the newly founded Institute for Applied Training Science (IAT). From 1992 to 1996 Daugs was a member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the IAT and from 1996 to 2002 he chaired the specialist committee "In-process training and competition research" of the Federal Institute for Sport Science.

At the German Association for Sports Science , Daugs was one of the founders of the Sports Motor Skills section and acted as its spokesman for a long time. Beyond the German borders, he made a name for himself in sports science as Vice President of the International Society for Sports Motor Skills.

On October 4, 2003, Daugs had a fatal bicycle accident on the island of Martinique .

In 2005, the Reinhard-Daugs-Förderpreis was awarded for the first time, which is awarded to young scientists in sports motor skills. The price was set up by Daug's companions after his death.
