Mental Training Made Easy for Coaches to Empower Their Athletes
MENTALÂ TRAINING NOT YET PART OF YOUR REGULAR PROGRAMMING?
If so, as a competitive youth sports coach, you're lacking a vital element in your pursuit of excellence for your athletes.
Achieving optimal performance primarily depends on four factors: physical, technical, tactical, and mental preparation.
AND with equal talent, everyone—athletes, parents, and coaches—agrees that the difference always comes down to the mental aspect.
Without a structured mental skills training program in your youth sports program, your athletes might never reach their full potential. This could leave your role as a youth sports coach feeling incomplete and prevent your institution from shining through their top performances.
Mental preparation is an essential dimension of sports performance
-Â Olivier Krumbholz, head coach of the French national women's handball team.

The content offered in our program
Mind Your Game (MYG) consists of 4 color-coded tracks, each containing 3 modules. Each year, you follow one track and learn new strategies on various topics. Here is the complete list of topics covered based on the color of the track:
Each module comprises 6-7 video lessons, each with an average duration of 4 minutes. Additionally, we provide exercises, group discussions, drills (both in-class and on-field), and activities to enhance participants' learning following each lesson. As part of the process, athletes will complete the Skill Check-In twice—once at the start of the year to establish a baseline and again at the end of the year to evaluate growth and improvement. This ensures a clear understanding of their development over time. Overall, you'll need to invest a minimum of 10 hours per year in your mental training 'budget'.Â
''Our strength lies in simplifying mental preparation and focusing on tools that make a real difference in the athlete's performance.''
