Through this meet-up, we aim to bring together the SportsHCI community and engage adjacent communities including User-centered AI, MobileHCI, CHIPlay, ISWCUbicomp, and Augmented Humans. Sports inherently involves mobile, playful, and ubiquitous technologies as well as human augmentation—making SportsHCI directly relevant to these subcommunities. By framing discussions around AI in the athlete experience and the role of multifaceted sports data, we create natural entry points for researchers across these domains. We invite participants to discuss their thoughts on these topics to foster collaboration among research groups.This work was supported by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Innovation, Mobility and Infrastructure (BMIMI), the Federal Ministry for Economy, Energy and Tourism (BMWET), and the provinces of Salzburg, Upper Austria and Tyrol within the framework of COMET – Competence Centres for Excellent Technologies.
