Tidigare studier har visat att övergången från junior till senior är en av de svårasteövergångarna i en idrottsligkarriär samtidigt ses övergången som en kritisk tid i livet. Miljönses både som en resurs och barriär beroende på hur individen upplever miljön, vidare visarforskning att motivation samt målmedvetenhet ses som resurser. Syftet med föreliggandestudie är med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer studera elitbandyspelares upplevelser avövergången mellan junior till senior med betoning på krav, coping, barriärer och resurser. Istudien deltog fyra manliga elitbandyspelare från svenska landslaget mellan åldrarna 25-31år(M= 29, SD=2.34). Tre semi-strukturerade intervjuer genomfördes som baserades på temanutifrån studies syfte. Intervjuerna analyserades med hjälp av kvalitativ innehållsanalys.Resultatet visade att det förekom inre och yttre krav i samband med övergången såsomindividuella krav samt de fysiska skillnaderna. Miljön påverkar övergången både positivt ochnegativ, både när det kommer till faktorer i samt utanför sporten. Vidare ansågs mentalaresurser såsom självförtroende som en resurs medan skador som barriär. Deltagarna har haften målmedvetenhet under övergången som upplevts som coping. För framtida forskningrekommenderas vidare forskning inom bandy. Det är av intresse att forska kring skillnadermellan dam respektive herrspelare under övergången från junior till senior, vidare såförekommer intresse att forska kring ekonomiska skillnaderna mellan ryska respektivesvenska högsta ligan i bandy.

Furthermore, studies have shown that determination andgoal awareness are seen as resources. The purpose of the essay was to study elite bandyplayer’s experience of the transitions from junior to senior with the aid of semi-structuredinterviews with emphasis on experienced demands, coping, barriers and resources. Theparticipant were four male elite bandy players from the national team in Sweden at the age of25-31 (M= 29, SD=2.34).The participants in the study participated in three semi-structuredinterviews, were the themes were based on the purpose. The interviews were analyzed byusing a qualitative content analysis. The results showed that internal and external demandsduring the transition were individual demands as well as physical differences. Theenvironment affects the transition positively and negatively, both factors inside and outsidethe sport. Furthermore, mental resources as self-confidence were resources while injurieswere considered to be barriers. The participants have had goal awareness during the transitionwhich was considered as coping. For future recommendations, it is of interest to keepconducting research in bandy.
