Building Mental Strength

This video is shared by Player Development Project.

The psychological component of player development can be seen as the most complex. It is dynamic and very much has to be catered towards the individual. In a coaching context it is a fundamental part of our roles but often one of the most overlooked.

Join Player Development Project Editor, Dave Wright as he engages in an informative discussion on mental performance and sports psychology with John Haime, former professional golfer and President of New Edge Performance in Canada. John and Dave discuss a range of key points and practical advice including:

  • Mental strength
  • The importance of self-awareness
  • Psychological tips for performance
  • Building character & resilience
  • The importance of happiness
