In summary, the current Special Issue provided several new insights and multidisciplinary perspectives on sports performance and health, and emphasized the ongoing challenges within this field. However, since the outbreak of the COVID 19 pandemic in early 2020, additional new issues emerged, such as the impact of COVID-19-related restrictions on performance and health in elite sports, the implications for mental and physical health in the general population, and the challenges related to the management of COVID-19 infection-related long-term sports performance and health consequences. Thus, there is an evident need to address such issues and fill our current large knowledge gaps through joint upcoming research efforts.
