In 2010, Mark was part of a research team at Northumbria University which was investigating the use and abuse of alcohol in UK university sport. The findings from this research have since gone on to be published several peer reviewed articles. In 2011 he began working towards his PhD continuing the work completed on Alcohol in UK university sport. Mark’s doctoral research is predominately looking at how alcohol use and sport participation change in the years following graduation from university. The research adopts both quantitative and qualitative methodologies in an attempt to understand the perceptions of graduates with regards to their alcohol use and how it relates to their participation in sport.
