As a coach, you need to set a good example for how to act in pressure situations. If you keep your composure and remain mentally strong, your players will likely do the same.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Mentally tough athletes figure out a way to win. No matter the challenge, they improvise, adapt, and overcome!

PLAYERS: Are you taking short cuts now that could cost your team in the long run? How you do everything is how you do anything. Are you the kind of person your teammates can count on? Great teams have great teammates.

A team is only as good as its leadership. With great leadership, a team can reach its potential and achieve great success. With poor leadership, a team can fall apart and fail miserably.

As a parent, don’t just rely on coaches to teach your children positive attitudes and strong character. Coaches can be a great influence, but it is primarily your responsibility to raise and develop your children.

Five things coachable athletes do:
1. Listen
2. Follow rules and instructions
3. Accept constructive criticism
4. Work hard
5. Put the team first

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

As an athlete, you need to accept your role on the team. Whether your role is to be the leading scorer or the glue guy, you must be willing and eager to do it for the sake of the team.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Individual success is a byproduct of team success. If you put the team first, the individual awards and accolades will come!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

The best way to impress a coach is by being an unselfish team player. If you always put your team first, your coach will take notice and reward you!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

As an athlete, your biggest problem in games isn't making mistakes. It's your negative response to making mistakes. Once you learn to stay positive after making mistakes, you'll perform much better in games.

As a parent, don’t just rely on coaches to teach your children positive attitudes and strong character. Coaches can be a great influence, but it is primarily your responsibility to raise and develop your children.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Great athletes make their teammates better. Not only do they play unselfishly in games, but they also help out their teammates during practice.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

The best athletes want to be coached. They embrace discipline, instruction, and feedback because they know these things help them improve and reach their goals.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

If you’re the hardest worker on your team, don’t go down to your teammates’ level. Push them to work harder to get on your level!
