This book offers a radical alternative to the cognitive and
cognitive-behavioural approaches that have dominated sport
psychology, and is the first to systematically apply existential
psychological theory and phenomenological method to sport
psychology. This much-needed alternative framework for the
discipline of applied sport psychology connects to many of the real
and most significant challenges faced by sports performers during
their careers and beyond, and bridges the gap that still exists
between the real needs of sport performers and what is delivered by
traditional sport psychology Existential psychology aims to assist
athletes in their personal growth so that as they develop their
physical strengths through sports coaching, they also become a
stronger person, and are therefore more likely to achieve their
true sporting potential. Existential Psychology and Sport outlines
an approach that can be used to add something of depth, substance
and academic rigour to sport psychology in applied settings beyond
the confines of mental skills training and good listening skills.
