Abstract
An optimal balance between the athletic and the academic or job career (dual career) is one of the main challenges elite athletes face throughout their development. The following research examines the different existing environments in Europe that support the development of a dual career, showing that this demand is well covered in this region, but it has yet to guarantee the growth in other specific contexts according to the diversity of cases and countries. Additionally, environments should facilitate the balance of the life spheres of all athletes, along with trying to promote and preserve their mental health.
