Download or read book Athletes Careers Across Cultures written by Natalia B. Stambulova and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athletes’ Careers Across Cultures is the first book of its kind to bring together a truly global spread of leading sports psychology career researchers and practitioners into one comprehensive resource. This extensive volume traces the evolution of athlete career research through a cultural lens and maps the complex topography of athletes’ careers across national boundaries exploring how social and cultural discourses shape their development. The area of athlete career development has traditionally been dominated by a Western perspective, an imbalance which has had a considerable influence on the shaping of career studies more generally. Stambulova and Ryba adopt a more culturally sensitive approach, offering a comprehensive analytical review of athlete career research and assistance in 19 different nations. The authors employ diverse theoretical, methodological and practical ideas to demonstrate how local knowledge enables a better understanding of the dynamics of cultural diversity within the field. Athletes’ Careers Across Cultures considers the ‘cultural praxis’ of athletes’ careers as a practical implication of the cultural turn. As such it will stimulate the development of culturally situated career research and assistance and be an invaluable and internationally relevant resource for academics, professionals and students working in sport and exercise psychology.

Not only is it difficult trying to find the right staff to surround yourself with, but it''s equally challenging trying to maximize your team''s potential and build a good brand of football the way you want to. There just isn''t enough time in the day to practice and work on all the skill building activities necessary to get your team over the hump. And this is Extremely Frustrating because you want to be a good coach and be recognized as an individual who is dedicated in building superior athletes both on and off the field. But as your team continues to lose games... your players can begin to lose confidence not just on themselves and their teammates but on you as a coach, your players can become angry about not getting the playing time they feel they deserve, and your players can start to lose the joy they once had in football. What are you to do? PLAYERS Millions of football athletes out there have the dream of being a stand out star, earning a division 1 scholarship, and getting drafted into the NFL. Many will Try, Many will Fail, Many will Give Up, and Only a very select Few will Succeed. You know you have what it takes but there''s just something missing that''s holding you back from unleashing the potential you know you have hidden within you. You continue to push yourself, you continue to work hard in the gym, and you continue to build your skills to set yourself apart from your competitors. But despite your efforts...you don''t notice any real progress. You become frustrated... you start to get worried about not being a contributing factor to your teams'' success.. you become nervous about under-performing and choking under pressure...you feel disappointed in yourself about letting your family, friends, and teammates down.. not living up to the expectations. What''s going on? PARENTS Being a Parent of a highly motivated athlete is one of the hardest jobs on the planet. Sports have highs and lows, and naturally you try your best to protect your kids from the pain and failure that may come, but sometimes it''s just inevitable. You watch helplessly as your pride and joy loses game after game, sits on the bench eager to get playing time, lose their confidence, become frustrated, not enjoy themselves and lose interest in the sport they once loved, lose respect from friends and teammates, and lose the faith they once had in accomplishing their goals. Even if you know a thing or two about sports, you''re busy at work and hardly have the time to stay and help your young superstar get over their slump. What can you do? THE ANSWER We have the SOLUTION! Our Football Brainz Workbook is exactly what athletes need to break through and succeed.
