Professional athletics came to the forefront through a combination of developments. Sports development is a national priority as it contributes to an active lifestyle, child and youth development, social inclusion, employment opportunities, peace and development, and above all, a sense of belonging and national pride. Sport is not only a specific type of human activity, it is a social phenomenon that contributes to raising the prestige of not only individuals but also the entire society, including the state. The level of success of sports activities is ensured by the relationships in the system "athlete-coach", "athlete-team", "athlete-athlete" and "athlete-fan" with the leading organizational role "athlete-coach". The psychological and pedagogical potential of this system determines the effectiveness both at the level of sports achievements of the athlete and the team, as well as at the level of attitude towards sports in the space of social relations.enprofessional sportsathleticssports careerpost-career crisissocial integrationпрофесійний спортлегка атлетикасоціальна інтеграціявзаємовідносиниArticle
