Mental health within elite sport has traditionally been ignored,
but recent research has shown that competitive sport can at times
seriously undermine mental health and that athletes are exposed to
specific stressors that hinder their mental health optimisation.
Mental Health and Well-being Interventions in Sport provides an
indispensable guide for researchers and practitioners wanting to
understand and implement sport-based intervention processes. This
important book adopts an evidenced based approach, discussing the
context of the intervention, its design and implementation, and its
evaluation and legacy. With cases on depression, eating disorders,
and athletic burnout, the book is designed to provide
practitioners, policy makers and researchers with a cutting-edge
overview of the key issues involved in this burgeoning area, while
also including cases on how sport itself has been used as a method
to improve mental health. Written for newcomers and established
practitioners alike, the text is an essential read for researchers
and practitioners in better understanding the sport setting-based
intervention processes through presenting current research, theory
and practice, applicable in a variety of sports settings and
contexts.
