In these very modern times, sports teams are not only made up of athletes and coaches. Team members also include members of different professions whose main purpose is to ensure maximum performance of the athletes. Some of these include team managers, doctors, physiotherapists and sports psychologists, who only deal in sports psychology. Put together, all should ensure there is a balance and stability of mind, body and soul.
Sports psychology is about how athletes handle different stressors of sports. It’s also about the athletes’ endurance. From observing the athlete, the psychologist along with the coach, can customize training sections for each athlete based on the evaluation given by the psychologist. They will know how far to push the athlete without getting them to their breaking point.
The psychologists work with the entire team, to ensure the athletes are giving their optimal performances. The team members are often taught to rely on each others strengths and you find that this is a source of encouragement when they are competing.
The sports psychologist studies the behavior of athletes before, during and after sporting events. With this information at hand, the coach with advice from the psychologist can plan a training routine that will utilize all the athletes’ abilities. The coaches are aware of all the stressors and endurance levels of the athletes under their watch, and this should serve as a guide on how to handle each individual athlete.
As a rule of thumb, the coaches and other training staff should also have some understanding of the basics of sports psychology. This will help them understand the psychologist better, the terms used, and they will be in a better position to make some judgments and decisions.
