History

History

The idea to create a European Network of Young Specialists in Sports Psychology
was born in July 1999 on the occasion of the 10th European Congress of Sports
Psychology in Prague (Czech Republic). However, ENYSSP as an organization was
founded four years later, in July 2003 at the 11th European Congress on Sports
Psychology in Copenhagen (Denmark). Since the official foundation of ENYSSP six
different Management Councils have been in place which were led by presidents
Xavier Sanchez (ESP), Caroline Jannes (BEL), Fredrik Weibull (SWE), Peter
Schneider (USA), Grzegorz Więcław (POL) and the current president Bernadette Ramaker (NLD). ENYSSP is
legalized as an international non-profit association according to EU Law.
