N1 - Funding Information: This special issue of Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences represents the outcome of an interdisciplinary research project sponsored by a 2013–14 grant by the National Research Foundation of the United Arab Emirates and UAE University, with the collaboration of Abu Dhabi Sports Council. In my capacity of principal investigator of this project, I am thankful to Sami Boudelaa for his role of senior guidance in our research partnership and for his wise recommendations, and to my respected colleagues, Mohamed Al-Baili, Nasser Al-Ameri, Steve Bird, Ali Al-Ghafli, Ateeq Jaka, William McDonald, Fdwa Al-Mughairbi, Jamal Al-Nuaimi, Saif Al-Qaydi, for encouraging and sustaining this seminal line of research in the Arab Gulf. Also, as guest editor of this special issue, I am personally grateful to the Philosophy Department of the University of Memphis for hosting the initial stage of this research, conducted in 2012 in Tennessee thanks to a Fulbright visiting fellowship. Two academic events importantly prepared the collective process of ideation and realization of this special issue: a symposium entitled “Embodied cognition and sport psychology: From fast motor actions to the choking effect”, hosted in July 2013 in Granada during the annual meeting of the European Society for Philosophy and Psychology, and the four-day long “First International Conference in Sport Psychology and Embodied Cognition”, hosted in February 2014 in Al Ain by UAE University, with the patronage of Abu Dhabi Sports Council, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, and the College of Education. I want to express my gratitude to all the researchers and practitioners who participated in these events, contributing to their realization with both their intellectual work and their invaluable experience on the field. Among the others, I must mention at least: Benjamin Aguda, Tom Buchanan, Roland Carlstedt, Alberto Cei, Matthew Cullen, Caren Diehl, Jesús Ilundáin-Agurruza, Martin Kramar, Tom Loney, David Mann, Tadhg MacIntyre, Mauro Maldonato, Fraser McLaughlan, Thomas Patrick, Gareth Picknell, Zuzanna Rucinska, Mark Scott. I would like to thank the authors of the papers comprised in this collection for believing in this project and dedicating their work to its success, and all the colleagues who generously offered their voluntary help and their time to the realization of this special issue: Chiara Brozzo, Ellen Fridland, Tasneem Alsayyed, Robert Kubala, Sara Parmigiani, Angelica Kaufmann, Silvia Grasso. I wish this research at the intersection of embodied cognition and sport psychology, and my future work in this field, could always continue to benefit from the precious directions of the distinguished scholars I had the honor to learn from during the last few years: Tom Carr, Shaun Gallagher, Dan Hutto, David Papineau, John Sutton, and Dan Zahavi.
