A COACHES GUIDE TO ACHIEVING GREAT PRACTICES
As a Mental Training Coach, I work with coaches everyday who are trying desperately to improve their practices- with new drills, the latest videos, inspirational quotes to motivate their athletes. But you know what 300 coaches said when asked to identify their biggest challenge in practice? I'll give you a hint: it wasn't the drills.
It was getting their athletes FOCUSED!
Athletes are distracted these days: with phones, social media, or just life in general. They sometimes come straight to practice from class or right after a fight with their boyfriend or have a big test the next day.
In other words, they are often physically at practice without mentally being there. We hear this time and time again from coaches at every level; they say that the first 20 minutes of practice is not productive at all. Instead it's used trying to get their athletes' heads right (sometimes in vain.
Every practice=20 minutes wasted. (And let's be honest, it's probably more.)
Yikes! You work too hard to waste time like that.
But I know what you are thinking: Another thing to implement means another thing that takes time. And it does take some time, up front. But not a lot and after that? No more fiddling and trying things that don't work.
As a former collegiate and professional athlete, I know how critical great practices are and I know how little time coaches have to keep fixing things.
So stop already.
Based on my work with hundreds of teams across the country, with coaches just like you that want great practices from the very first whistle, I created a system to help your team create those consistently great practices you are searching for. Even better? It's affordable and simple.
Because you deserve it.
Best,
