A life involved in sport can be exciting, fulfilling and highly rewarding. It can bring great personal satisfaction, recognition, achievement, friendships and opportunities as well as a lifestyle to which many people aspire but only few can make their own. The processes of training and competition can bring about personal growth, self-discipline, confidence and maturity as well as attributes such as resilience and self-understanding.

On the flip side of the coin many can attest to the fact that involvement in sport can also be extremely challenging, with many accompanying failures, disappointments and stresses along the way. For many people these periods of striving and hardship can result in even higher achievement and personal growth as these hurdles are overcome but for a significant minority things may not turn out so well and these problems may impact on the individual, not only on their personal life and relationships but also on their performance in the context of sport.
