In Three ways,evaluate the coverage of sports personalities by the media in a relation to the covid 19 pandemic
Answers
With the cancellation of, for example, the Tokyo Olympic Paralympic Games, and the European Soccer Championships, the year 2020 will be recalled more readily for the shifts in the sporting season as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic rather than examples of stellar sporting excellence. Restrictions on travel, physical activity, and mass gatherings because of COVID19 pandemic have had major implications for athletes and players, with restrictions of access to training venues, cancellation of events, and loss of earnings. These implications can have commensurate psychological consequences. In recent weeks, many resources have been made available on this topic, including direct interventions for athletes, and indirect for other stakeholders including coaches and parents. How athletes and partners in sport can collectively cope with such adversity is useful from a service provision perspective and instructive for elucidating our understanding of many topics including emotion regulation, coping skills, resilience, mental health stigma, and well-being strategies.
