Communication and Its Importance in Sports

Abstract

This review was carried out to systematically examine the existing literature on the subject. The importance and impact of communication in the world of sport has been systematically evaluated through literature review, scientific articles, books, reports and other reliable sources. Communication is a fundamental process that facilitates the transfer of information, feelings and thoughts between individuals in the field of sport. Sport communication encompasses the interaction of athletes with coaches, teammates, media and fans and plays a critical role at all levels of sport. A favourable communication environment can influence athletes' performance, enhance team cohesion and emerge as a critical factor on the path to success. As a result, sport communication is a critical factor in enhancing performance, strengthening team cohesion and building healthy relationships with other stakeholders in the world of sport. Developing and implementing effective communication strategies is important to support the long-term success of both individual athletes and teams. Therefore, sport managers, coaches and athletes should prioritise communication and strive to achieve success in this area.
