Mental Strength in Sports
Date TBD | 9am-12pm Incoming 6th-8th graders Often times the hidden opponent in sports is our mental game i.e., anxious thoughts, negative self talk and lack of mental resilience skills. For example 70% of young athletes in the US stop participating in organized sports by age 13 due to burnout. Therefore, we created this 1 day workshop to teach our youth how to conquer the hidden opponent through moving from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset.  Athletes with a fixed mindset believe that people either have skills and abilities or they do not. They may be more emotional, and may get caught up in their failures or shortcomings, comparing their ability levels to other athletes. They are more focused on training outcomes than on the process itself. Athletes with a growth mindset believe that skills can be improved through hard work, challenges are opportunities to test oneself, and feedback is a learning tool. They are often more focused on the process than on training outcomes. This creates emotional resilience and confidence in themselves and their team!
