Why Sport Psychology?

"What you have to do and the way you have to do it is incredibly simple. Whether you are willing to do it, that's another matter."

Sport psychology is the study of people and their behaviors in sport and exercise activities; and the practical application of that knowledge. The main objectives are to understand the effects of psychological factors on physical performance and to understand the effects of participating in physical activity on psychological health, development, and well-being.
