Abstract
Athletes as a group are prone to experiencing different types of losses. These can include the loss of significant people, losses related to self-image, loss of external objects, and loss of abilities. These losses are frequently misunderstood by coaches, teammates, and therapists. However, until resolved, losses persist in preventing optimum athletic performance (or recovery from injury). Typical responses to loss are discussed, and a therapeutic strategy for dealing with athletes experiencing a loss is proposed for coaches, physicians, trainers, and physical therapists. Finally, a case study is presented as an example. Verf.-Referat
