Keynotes On "An Introduction To Sports and Exercise Psychology" By
Aidan. P. Morgan.
Sports and Exercise Psychology----Discipline and Profession .
Figure 1:1, "Sport is played with the body but won in the mind"
Regardless of whether its origins are pragmatic or therapeutic, athletes interest in consulting
psychologists is particularly noticeable at the elite grade of sport performance because at this level
there are minimal differences between competitors in technical ability andor physical fitness G.Jones,
Hanton and Connaughton, 2002.This observation is endorsed by the English tennis player Tim Henman
who proposed that the mental side is the difference between the top guys and the rest cited in Pitt,
1998b, p.13.Echoing this opinion, Sven-Gran Eriksson, the manager of the England football team,
proclaimed that in the end, its that psychological difference that decides whether you win or lose cited
in Winter, 2002a, p.
Many sport scientists e.g., Sellars, 1996 distinguish between four hypothetical aspects of
athletic performance physical, technical, tactical and psychological see Figure 1.2.Within this quadrant,
physical aspects of sport performance refer to phenomena such as fitness, strength and stamina which
can be measured objectively.Next, technical aspects of performance refer mainly to the proficiency with
which athletes can execute fundamental skills required by their specialist sport.For example, a
competitive swimmer in freestyle events must be able to perform a turn.
