Multi-sport athlete
A multi-sport athlete is someone who actively participates in more than one athletic sport, often during the same season or throughout different parts of the year. This allows them to develop diverse skills, physical conditioning, and experiences across various sports disciplines. Being a multi-sport athlete can enhance overall athletic ability, reduce burnout from specializing early, and foster adaptability. Many athletes choose to compete in multiple sports for personal enjoyment, athletic development, or as part of their school or community sports programs.
