Athletic performance is amalgamation of physiological capacities, mental processes and bio mechanical advantage. Over the years athletes around the world are over stretching their physical as well as technological prowess, but, at last it all comes down to their mental prowess on the deciding day. This book attempts to investigate the association of three such mental faculties, namely, cognitive, emotional and social respectively. It also evaluates athletes from team, individual and combat sports on the given attributes.
