<p>Dear editors,</p>
<p>We wish to submit an original research article entitled <em>“A systematic review on mental health in sports coaches”</em> for consideration by The Interamerican Journal of Psychology. We confirm that this work is original and has not been published elsewhere, nor is it currently under consideration for publication elsewhere.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In this paper, a systematic review was conducted on studies published in the last 10 years related to the mental health of sports coaches. This investigation reports on how there is a lack of studies regarding this topic and reveals the gaps when studying this population.</p>
<p>This is significant because despite the growing interest in mental health in general, more awareness is definitely needed regarding mental problems in sports coaches, considering how important these professionals are for the sports field in general and how little attention is given to their psychological well-being.</p>
<p>We believe that this manuscript is appropriate for publication by The Interamerican Journal of Psychology because it is deeply related to psychology and mental health, which are themes suited to the Journal's scope.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We have no conflicts of interest to disclose.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Please address all correspondence concerning this manuscript to <em>renatogm@ufmg.br</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank you for your consideration of this manuscript.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Renato Gomes Sá de Moraes.</p>
