Sport Psych Network

In this episode I spoke with James Maurice about his development as a Sport and Exercise Psychologist. James is currently a chartered Sport and Exercise Psychologist with the BPS, and has recently began completing a PhD at the University of Wolverhampton looking at parent engagement in elite academy football. We discussed early career development, James' experiences within football and what makes an effective sport psychologist (among many other things!). James' experiences to date, coupled with the story of his development as a person make this interview one of my most engaging and informative to date.  You can find James on Twitter (@JamesmauriceSP), and as always your comments and feedback are greatly appreciated! James has also kindly provided a key reading list, compiled of books/research specifically referenced within the interview.   KEY READING: Books: - Being a Sport Psychologist - Richard Keegan - Sport Psychology for Young Athletes - Camilla Knight, Chris Harwood, & Daniel Gould - Man’s S
