Sport psychology is a specialty that employs psychological knowledge and abilities to solve difficulties related to athletes' optimal performance and wellbeing, the social and developmental elements of participating in sports, and systemic problems with sports environments and organisations. A doctorate in one of the major branches of psychology and licence as a psychologist are prerequisites for the APA to recognise sport psychology as a skill. Those who hold a doctorate in sport psychology but are not registered psychologists are not considered to possess this ability.
