The rate of technological changes is another difficulty the sports sector faces. Through social media, many fans keep up with their favourite teams, which puts pressure on organisations to regularly update their Facebook and Twitter accounts. Similarly, venues must maintain the tempo. For fans who want to stay connected throughout the game, the lack of wifi can be a significant turnoff. Fans won't simply follow teams online or attend games in person if they can't attract them with current technology and aren't proactive with social media.

Sport psychology is a specialty that employs psychological knowledge and abilities to solve difficulties related to athletes' optimal performance and wellbeing, the social and developmental elements of participating in sports, and systemic problems with sports environments and organisations. A doctorate in one of the major branches of psychology and licence as a psychologist are prerequisites for the APA to recognise sport psychology as a skill. Those who hold a doctorate in sport psychology but are not registered psychologists are not considered to possess this ability.
