Retiring from competitive sport may not be as easy as it seems. This book discusses the process and emotion an elite athlete faces when contemplating retirement. This research has practical applications in sport psychology and coaching. Sport identity, motivation and accomplishment are discussed as factors that contribute to a positive or negative retirement experience. The sport of gymnastics is highlighted due to the unique challenges athletes face at a young age.
