An occasional publication for the then Sport and Exercise Psychology Section.
An open invitation was sent to members of the Section to write about 'What Sport Psychologists do' and this had an excellent response. It is hoped that this small book will fill a gap by describing the great variety of issues and problems which come the way of working Exercise and Sport psychologists and so prepare potential practitioners for what they may actually expect to do in their day-to-day work.
