The Psychology Of Sport©
The History of the Word
Sportchology™
On the evening of November 26, 2011, I was on my way to my kids’ hockey game in St. Albert, Alberta.
Another cold prairie evening, listening to the local sports radio station.
The program’s topic caught my attention — the intersection of sports and psychology.
As a coach with nearly 30 years of experience, I knew firsthand that sport and psychology are inseparable and essential parts of training.
As the discussion escalated, the host and guests stumbled over the word sportology — its pronunciation and its meaning in sport.
According to Merriam-Webster, Sportology and or Sportsology are not a recognized vocabulary words, nor are they ™ or © brands.
As the conversation progressed, the hosts and guests repeatedly tripped over both pronouncing it and explaining what they meant. I could hear them circling around the concept, but nothing they said landed with clarity.
Sitting at a red light, I realized what was missing — clarity.
I needed to create a word that said exactly what it did — a word that would instantly and unmistakably define itself the moment you heard it.
Without hesitation, I reached for my GoDaddy® app, right there in the driver’s seat, and registered Sportchology.com before the light turned green.
It was perfect. It was clear. It was the word I knew would carry weight:
Sportchology™ – The Psychology of Sport.
From the moment it left my mind and entered the domain registry, it had a definable, permanent meaning. It was more than a mash-up of “Sport” and “Psychology” — it was the only word that needed no further explanation.
One day, Merriam-Webster will recognize Sportchology™ as an actual word, as it will come to dominate the lexicon of sport language.
Define Sportchology™
Sportchology™ is the word created to give lasting clarity to 'The Psychology Of Sport©.
For decades, athletes, coaches, and even educators lacked a single, universal term.
“Sportology” and “sportsology” floated without meaning, while “sport psychology” stayed locked in academic silos.
The language was fractured, and the field never had a true identity.
Sportchology™ was born to solve that problem.
It is not a degree, nor an accreditation — it is a definition. A forever reference.
A platform, a library, and a community that consolidates the sciences of performance and makes them accessible, searchable,
and trusted for everyone, not just the classroom.
We are here to own the lane of sport psychology, to archive its knowledge in print and digital,
and to empower every athlete, coach, and fan with timeless tools for the mind.
Where we are going is simple:
Sportchology™ will stand as the global reference
The word, the platform, and the forever library where sport meets mind.
