Performance analysis is an indispensable element for elite sports success. Coaches and teams are constantly striving for ways to improve and maximize their performance. Effective use of performance analysis enables tactical, decision making, better athletic confidence and improvement of reflective coaching technique. Performance analysis is required for coaches and athletes to ensure consistent success rates, especially at elite levels. Although performance analysis seems necessary in elite sports, we should recognize the benefits and disadvantages associated with the individual athlete and sports system that regulate their distribution for their use. These are a new technology, nanobiosensor, a concept that combines biomedical field with sports engineering and nanotechnology and ethically addresses future performance analysis in sports. In this study, this concept is discussed. This innovative technology has the potential to revolutionize sports and enables athletes to collect real-time biological data electronically. Affinity-based nanobiosensors have also been taken into consideration in sports medicine and doping control analysis because they are cheap and easy-to-use, yet selectively analytical devices. Allows the use of the same sensor for multiple analyzes. At the same time, nanobiosensors can contribute to filling an important information gap about complementary evidence from their “on-site” use and pre-selecting the risk population of individuals to be targeted for a complete antidoping test; In sports medicine, they can contribute to obtaining analytical knowledge of physiological relevance from measurement of specific parameters or markers before, during and after physical exercise. However, as with many technologies, this technology may have undesirable uses. These unwanted uses are; data ownership and privacy may affect data privacy and well-being of athletes. While the use of nanobiosensors in sports analysis in the future offers many potential benefits, there is also a concern that they can be abused. For this reason, it is essential for sports organizations to consider the development of a sound, ethically informed governance framework before their increased use. Thus, the value of sports and athletes will become more prominent. For this reason, it is very important for athletes and their regulators to develop measures to ethically integrate this technology into sports.
