By Chris Sloan, 0 CommentsI often get questions similar to the following, having to do with their child's sports focus. My son seems to have trouble concentrating for very long during competition, any advice to help them gain sports focus?
The first thing I try to find out from parents, after receiving this type question, is whether their child has trouble concentrating with other things, as schoolwork and other activities, or is it simply their sports focus. When they have concentration problems with many things, parents should consult with qualified, behavioral personnel. When it is mainly the sports focus, the following suggestions may help.
* It is important to note that it is common for many kids to lack sport focus in practice, especially at young ages, but when there is an apparent lack of focus in game competition, there is more reason to figure things out.
Finally, even though it may be evident that a child lacks concentration, it is counter-productive to make a big too big of a deal of it, as getting upset about it with them, usually hurts a child's self-esteem in the end. Finding the activities that kids concentrate on and enjoy is the parents' responsibility.
