Abstract
The high level of training of athletes is the result of intense long-term physical training, however, in modern conditions the development of psychological qualities of an athlete is no less important. In the process of historical transformation the system of psychological support for athletes has repeatedly confirmed its effectiveness. Specialists who continued to work in the system of sports psychology in the Republic of Belarus after obtaining the status of an independent status managed with great difficulty to retain a significant part of their accumulated experience and continue the development of this area. Unfortunately, at present, the activities of the sports psychology service are mainly concentrated in the Minsk region and work with athletes from the regions is not of a permanent qualitative nature. However, there is a perspective of forming a unified republican service of sports psychological support through the involvement of the teaching staff and graduates of the psychological profile of regional higher educational institutions in cooperation with specialists in the field of physical culture and sports. Based on the results of a pilot research project conducted by employees of the Mental Health Medicine Faculty of the Grodno State Medical University it was possible to determine the areas of research work that will contribute to the development of a system of psychological support for athletes in the Grodno region.
