"C" where Success Begins

Coaches must teach the fundamentals of the game, but also must help players develop a good mental game.

The best-case scenario for any athlete is creating a cycle of ingredients that bring success. Each success ingredient feeds off the other in a revolving cycle that makes success an almost certainty. When these three things are working for athletes, the elusive feeling of being "in the zone" occurs, which allows the game to feel as though the game is in slow motion.

Concentration The ability to keep the mind in the present, without worry of the past or present, gives players the quiet mind and focus to accomplish the objective.
