[Health for performance†: a concept that must prevail in sports]. / Health for Performance†: un concept à ancrer dans le sport.

Competitive sports demand numerous sacrifices from young adolescent athletes to reach early performance. This comes at a high price: many injuries, sometimes serious, recurrent fatigue, or undue pressure, bordering on abuse definitions. We present a new concept, which seems quite obvious: health for performance. In the presence of complete biopsychosocial health, adolescent athletes can thrive and meet their athletic, social and academic goals. A conducive sports environment, one which integrates interdisciplinarity with healthcare stakeholders, can allow for a complete harmonious positive development, one which is aligned with Public Health goals. Healthy adolescents may become performing athletes, but they will most definitely contribute positively to their wellbeing, as well as society in general.

Le sport de compétition exige des jeunes adolescents de nombreux sacrifices pour la performance dès le plus jeune âge. Ceci n'est pas sans conséquences, comme en témoignent les blessures parfois graves, la fatigue fréquente et les pressions subies, proches des définitions de la maltraitance. Nous présentons ici un concept nouveau, pourtant si évident : la santé pour la performance. En présence d'une santé bio-psycho-sociale complète, les jeunes athlètes se développent harmonieusement et peuvent atteindre leurs objectifs. Un environnement sportif favorable, fonctionnant en interdisciplinarité avec les acteurs de la santé, permet un apprentissage physique complet et favorise un développement positif des adolescents, en accord avec les objectifs de santé publique. Ainsi ils contribueront tant à leur bien-être qu'à celui de la société.

Within the framework of the National Strategy for the Prevention of Non-communicable Diseases, movement as a form of therapy is therefore to be anchored in health care in the future. Sports physicians have an important role as multipliers.
