Starting Sports Science. Best study materials to buy?

Starting sports science in September, and I am planning on acing it.

I have extensive knowledge on the subject already. I have spent the last few years studying sports science as a hobby, which is the reason behind why I am aiming to do so well.

Even so, I want to make sure to study all the topics to a sufficient degree before I start to get a head start
.
Fitness Training: Practical Skills
Placement Practice
Human Anatomy
Exercise Physiology
Psychology for Exercise and Physical Activity
Sport, Physical and Exercise Event Planning
Principles of Sport, Health and Fitness Professions
Fitness Testing and Training
Nutrition for Health and Fitness
Exercise for Specific Populations
Sport Science Research Project

These are the topics in my course (adults course). Are there any specific books/materials I should look at purchasing? Cheers.
