Supporting Elite Athletes: Proactive Mental Health Monitoring

Importance of Monitoring Elite Athletes

Enhancing Wellbeing Through Proactive Support

Elite athletes face unique challenges that can significantly impact their mental health. According to Statista, there were approximately 13,800 professional sports players in the United Kingdom in 2024. The pressure of fame, performance, and injury can lead to mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. Research indicates that around 7% of elite athletes will experience PTSD at some point in their lives. Additionally, athletes are at a higher risk of substance abuse, with around 11% of athletes diagnosed with a substance use disorder. Furthermore, suicide rates among athletes have increased, with suicide being the second leading cause of death among National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletes. By proactively monitoring mental health and providing timely support, your organisation can significantly enhance the wellbeing of elite athletes and improve their overall quality of life.

At OurPulse, we recognise the unique challenges that elite athletes face, including mental health issues related to fame, injury, and the pressure of their professional careers.
