The International Society for Sports Psychiatry (ISSP) Scientific Committee is one of ten advisory committees within the ISSP. Within the ISSP, the committees play an important role in the further development of the ISSP and sports psychiatry internationally. This leadership structure helps the ISSP move towards its organisational goals by facilitating collaboration between the board of directors and active members of the sports psychiatry community across diverse areas.
This editorial introduces the structure and the approach of the Scientific Committee to the global sport’s psychiatric audience.
