Abstract
The purpose of the in-depth reporting thesis is to focus on Taiwan’s professional tennis players that also have student identities. Because of the tradition thoughts and poor conditions for athletes, they are permitted to being tennis pro and playing the student role in the same time, for the sake of the day they no longer play tennis as a job. Using in-depth interview and data collecting, the results of this reporting thesis are as following:. Taiwan’s sport system is still lack of planning and regulating to take care of the elite athletes while they leave the sports field.. From the above mentioned, although the players spare no efforts reaching higher and higher rankings in tennis courts, they have to as good antecedents as possible.. For the schools that can suit the players’ needs, the administrators look forward to attracting more elite athletes to make the school more famous or get better records or fame, and such mutualism relationships are very common today.. Those elite tennis professionals have been facing all kinds of conflicts both in the past days and today. People and media are used to spot light on their fabulous performs in sports but not familiar with their multiple role playing in schools, life planning in retirement, or injuries and budget problems. The most important lesson for the elite professionals is to make future programming ahead of schedule.
