What Is Sports Psychology?
You would be hard pressed to find any Olympic, Professional, or Major College sports program not using the principles of Sports Psychology. Many of the more financially rich teams, as well as, numerous individual amateur and professional athletes consult with sports psychologists.
Sports psychology develops an athlete's mental preparedness in much the same way physical conditioning prepares the body. Examples of mental training abound in the world of sports and include the following: golf, baseball, football, soccer, gymnastics, swimming, running, basketball, martial arts, etc. Some of the techniques of sports psychology include Visual Imagery Training, Relaxation Techniques, Goal Setting, and Thought Training.
