An athlete can use the SWOT matrix to analyze and guide their sports career.
This method helps them identify their strengths (such as physical condition or technical skills) and weaknesses (like a lack of endurance or focus), in order to better understand themselves and improve. It also takes into account threats, such as injuries, competition, or pressure, which can hinder progress, and opportunities, like competitions or training camps, that can help move their career forward.
By analyzing these four elements, (SWOT: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) the athlete can build a clear strategy, make better decisions, and reach their goals more effectively.
