Whether amateur, semi-professional, or professional, every athlete will experience the end of their career at some point. This can be an extremely daunting prospect.
Many athletes will have little to no working experience, and some may have missed out on college or university due to their sporting commitments. By the time they reach retirement, these athletes would therefore find themselves at least 10 years behind in the vocational development and experience of an average non-athlete.
The average elite athlete will train for six hours a day, which leaves no, or little time for work experience, studying, or career planning.
An athlete’s retirement tends to occur at a relatively early age. Athletes therefore have many working years left before reaching a traditional retirement age and subsequently need to transition into a new career.
The end of a sporting career can be felt as a significant loss in an athlete’s life, especially if it was premature or not freely chosen, such as in the case of a career-ending injury or any other circumstances.
For many athletes, their athletic career is how they create a sense of relevance and purpose in their lives. The end of an athletic career can have a significant impact on athletes’ overall mental health and psychological well-being. This is especially the case for athletes who are not prepared for retirement, and whose retirement is forced upon them.
