In his speech entitled “Successful Psychosocial Development of High Performance Athletes” he explored the differential development that high performance athletes face, extending from younger age till retirement from sports, which may produce deficits that hinders their adjustment to their post-competition life. Mr. Pavlidis outlined several suggestions on how high performance athletes can engage in behaviours that will help their psychosocial development, and how they can be supported in these efforts by their trainers, parents, sport clubs, and federations.
