1. The introduction
1) Attracts the audience.
For ordinary people, sport is fairly good means to be excited and healthy. However, for athletes, they also can be excited and healthy by playing sports, but their another aim is to win the game. Winning brings satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment for ordinary people, but professional athletes earn money, honor, and so on. Therefore sport has more crucial significance to athletes.
For winning the game, athletes need performance skills and fitness like physical abilities. It is a matter of course for them to have. That is why athletes exercise and build up their bodies. However, there is another requirement to win the match. It is psychology.
Recently, athletes and coaches are interested in sport psychology, for example, there is a special psychological expert team in sports powerhouse such as Europe or North America. The special team deals with psychological problem professionally. They check out athletes' mental states and teach them how to control the mentality, consulting them(Chung chung hee, 2006). Anyway the frequency of utilization and awareness of sport psychology are getting higher. I will explain more below.
2) Explains the topic.
I will deal with sport psychology. It is a study which finds out the reason why athlete can not show real ability and why this situation occurs sometimes. Also this study researches how to minimize the adverse or bad effects of psychology and sports psychologists produce programs according to the research result and adapt to the field(김병준 Kim byeung jun, 2002). The most important thing psychologists research is to develop the psychological skills and its programs(Chung chung hee, 2006). In sports psychology, there has been many researches which suggest the relationship between mental state and athletic performance. In competitive sports, athletes' mental state has much to do with athletic performance and these mental state is not limited by psychology, but a kind of technique like exercise technique and it is called psychological skill. Ultimately, I argue that psychological skill is also essential in playing sports as mush as physical ability.
3) Declares the thesis of your argument.
My thesis is ‘Sport psychology is much more important than physical training’ To be clearer, I revise the thesis: psychology has a great impact on sports as much as physical ability. This is because fitness and strength are indispensable factors in playing sports, so is psychology.
