Experiential interventions focused on optimization of children`s and teenagers` performances in sports

Abstract

Children and teenagers practice a lot of sports today, in the parks, on the sports grounds or in the halls specially arranged for such kind of activities. Many of them come to practice high performance sports at a very early age, being sustained by parents and coaches. Sometimes, such an experience can be managed quite well by the components of the sportive-coach- parent trio. Some other times, the interactions among the same three can be obstructed and then the intervention of an educational psychologist or counselor comes as a necessity.

Key words:

performance, experiential interventions, prevention, psychological counseling, children.
