Abstract

Organizational stressors in sports had developed rapidly in the past decade and produced a theoretical framework that stimulated studies exploring the demands faced by athletes. Organizational stressors have the potential to cause many undesirable consequences for athletes. Organizational stressors have been defined as environmental demands that are related, especially and directly to the organization where an individual operates. In addition, social support is influenced by sports performance, regardless of the stress level. Athletes must be encouraged to be proactive in utilizing social support from people around that is important in overcoming the events experienced by them. The existence of social support can reduce or eliminate the bad consequences of events experienced, such as health and well-being of athletes. Social support can influence sports performance by advising on tactics in matches, game strategies, or by increasing the positive influence and greater influence on athletes both before and during the competition. Therefore, it is very important that psychologists better understand the demands in facing athletes through their exploration and assessment. However, although researchers have identified various organizational stressors in competitive sports and the role of social support in the competitive stress process, coaches and athletes should know how to improve the sport performance in stressful and demanding situations. The purpose of this paper is to present scientific knowledge about the role of social support as a moderator to help athletes cope with the demands and pressures imposed by organizations.
