Abstract
The purpose of this article is to further discuss the ethical situations that may result (as previously mentioned by Ellickson & Brown, 1990) when a sport psychologist also serves as a coach to the same group of athletes. As Ellickson and Brown mention, these can be conflicting roles when a therapeutic relationship is involved. However, due to the nature of the various duties of coaches, the sport psychologist/coach can be seen as very compatible, while remaining ethical, roles.
