N2 - Data was obtained on the support of highly qualified athletes by parents and other significant persons in sports and training activities, as one of the factors of a successful dual career. A high degree of identification with the role of an “athlete” as a possible factor in the deterioration of academic success was assessed. The study used questions from the N. Stambulova structured questionnaire “The Dual Career Survey (DCS)” in the translation and adaptation of N. L. Ilina, E.E. Khvatsky (n = 34, sportsmen of different kinds of sports; 16 boys, 18 girls), from 17 to 23 years old. All sportsmen study in universities (n = 34; year 1-4; 27 mothers, 7 fathers). Athletes were divided into two groups: “successful” in training activities and “unsuccessful” (there are academic debts, academic leave, low academic achievement score). The main support in training and competitions, athletes of both groups receive from the coach, teammates and parents. "Successful" athletes feel the same strong support from coaches, parents and teachers in the field of training at the university. "Unsuccessful" athletes do not feel the support from teachers, coaches and parents. The parents of the athletes of the two groups are confident that they provide maximum support to the athletes. This is not combined with the opinion of the “unsuccessful” athletes. High identification with the role of an "athlete" does not interfere with the successful combination of training and sports activities.
