- Synopsis
- You Got This!: Mental Game Skills for Young Softball Players Softball isn’t just about physical skills. It’s a mental game, too. It’s never too early for young players to start mastering the mental side of the game! Parents and coaches, this exciting book is your chance to give your athletes the mental edge they need. Renowned sport psychologist Dr. Curt Ickes created this book specifically to help 8-12-year-old softball players play their best. Dr. Ickes uses fun, easy-to-follow lessons to bring sport psychology techniques to young players—skills often reserved for older athletes—making them available to kids. The lessons are taught using easy-to-understand language and are woven into a fun, relatable story. Follow Ava, Zoe, Addie, and the Southport Sting as they take on challenges both on and off the field. Zoe, like many young athletes, battles anxiety and self-doubt, but with the help of her new teammate Ava, she learns how to overcome these struggles, bounce back from mistakes, sharpen her focus, and boost her confidence. And just in time, too! The Sting is about to face two powerhouse teams, the Calabash Cobras and the Wilmington Wildcats, and they’ll need every ounce of mental strength to come out on top! Slumps, self-doubt, anxiety: these are challenges every young player faces. One bad game can cause a spiral of negative thoughts, turning a single mistake into a string of poor performances. Parents and coaches often say things like, “Be confident” or “Relax,” but without real tools, these words don’t stick. That’s where You Got This! comes in. This book teaches proven mental game strategies that young players can easily understand and apply. With practical exercises and a review section to lock in their new skills, your athlete will be equipped to face any challenge with confidence.
