Taking a refreshingly different approach to the subject, this textbook uses a set of original case studies to illustrate the application of sport psychology in practice. Written by a team of experienced practitioners, it covers a variety of sports within an individual and a team setting.   The book is divided into four sections. Section 1 outlines the structure of the book and describes the relevance of applied experience in sport psychology. Sections 2, 3 and 4 comprise the case studies themselves. These outline the theory, reveal the philosophical underpinning of the practitioner, and report the psychological intervention used, the rationale for its usage, and the monitoring and evaluation of that intervention, and conclude with a summary and a set of questions.  Each case study demonstrates scientific and intellectual rigour, an evidence-based approach and reflective practice.  This text will prove invaluable to sport psychology students by providing real world integration of different areas of theory and practice for performance enhancement.
