Dear Coaches,
Welcome back to Courtside with Mental Training Plan, a new monthly resource crafted exclusively for you, in partnership with the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA). Our goal is to provide you with practical tools and strategies to elevate your athletes’ mental game and help them perform at their best when it matters most.
This Month’s Resource: Controlling Self-Talk
Don't just hope that your team will be able to speak positively when the game is on the line, make a plan and be sure of it! In this installment, we focus on developing a go-to statement—your mental anchor for when doubt creeps in. When that inner voice says, "I'm not sure if you're good enough" or "I don't know if we can win," it's crucial to have a response ready. We'll show you how to create a powerful, positive statement to silence those doubts and keep you focused on success.
Dive into the Resource: Here is this month's resource to help your athletes come up with a plan for what they will do when that negative voice starts telling them they are not good enough:
