This study has been undertaken to assess the sleep quality and quantity of female athletes by using Pittsburgh sleep quality index questionnaire (PSQI). The purpose of this study is to examine sleep quality, sleep duration, and daytime sleepiness among university female athletes. Hundred female athletes (State/national level players of age: 18-25 years) participated in this study. Their sleep quality and quantity were assessed by using Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) Questionnaire. Only seven female athletes had sleep quality rated as “good”, leaving the overwhelming majority 93% classified as having their sleep quality rated as “bad”. Our findings highlight sleep hygiene is an important component of health that is often ignored by sports medicine professionals, with such a large majority of female athletes having very low sleep quality scores. Additionally, this study clearly provides evidence that this health need is not being addressed or being ignored. Further, our results suggest that there is a need for further education of student-athletes so that they understand the importance of sleep and the impact it can have on athletic and academic performance.
