In the practice of professional sports and in the education of children through sports activities, psychology and physical activity are interconnected. Sports help not only to develop skills, but also maintain a psycho-emotional state, which contributes to the successful achievement of goals and personal development. The interaction of sports and psychology allows a person to develop comprehensively: health is strengthened, moral qualities are developed and social ties are strengthened. The psychology of physical education and sports is a field of psychological science that studies the patterns of manifestation, development and formation of the human psyche in specific conditions of physical education. Physical education is one of the most important elements of the human education system. The formation of personality occurs through harmony between the physical and psychological state, which creates resistance to external and internal challenges.
