Key Points - This scoping review considers all published work considering the multisport pathway in athlete development. - It was found that there are multiple terms being used to describe the multisport pathway with different operationalizations of those terms. This is turn leads to confusion regarding what the multisport pathway looks like and what mechanisms make this pathway potentially more beneficial to youth athletes. - This research proposes a distinction between the commonly used multisport terms sampling and diversification by taking into consideration the different intensity levels of multisport engagement athletes may be involved in.
