Without a doubt, the most impactful person to develop mental skills toughness in athletes is their coach. Not only are they the most influential person in athletes’ sporting lives (and often outside too!), they are constantly working with the athletes and have the opportunity to be continuously developing, building on, and re-enforcing these vital skills.  So what are the most vital mental skills coaches can impart on their team (or squad)?  In this presentation, find out not only what they are, but how you can easily and consistently include them in your training program, whether you’re coaching at the elite or participation level.  This is a practical ‘how-to’ presentation that the participants can incorporate into their sports programs immediately.

The key learning objectives for the session participants are:

• Discover a step-by-step process for developing “mental toughness”.
• Learn what a “performance state” is.
• Understand the 3 essential performance drivers every athlete already uses but is unlikely to consciously know. Find out how to deliberately tap into this.
• Identify the varying behavioral styles of athletes in your team.
• How to incorporate mental skills development into your every-day coaching.
