About this audiobook
Finally! There is A Mental Toughness Book For Young Athletes!
Troy Horne here. Your mental toughness guide! I know exactly how you feel. You probably have a young athlete who struggles with in-game stress and maybe even sports performance anxiety. This is the only book that I know of with input from an actual young athlete. I am here to help you parents understand how to help your kiddo navigate this mental toughness journey. That's why I wrote the Mental Toughness for Young Athletes: Eight Proven 5-Minute Mindset Exercises For Kids And Teens In Competitive Sports (Parent's Guide)
In the past I have purchased a lot of books about mental toughness in sports. Most of the books that I read were not written for youth athletes in COMPETITIVE sports. There is a difference. Since there wasn't anything out there for elite athletes we took the long journey of ups and downs for you. IT WAS ROUGH! Luckily along the way we found a winning formula! My son Moses and I launched a podcast together (HOOPCHALK BASKETBALL PODCAST) and on it we interviewed sports mental toughness giants like....
- Chauncey Billups
- Tywanna Smith
- Keiko Yoshimine
- Earl Boykins
- Jason Richardson and
- Kobe Bryant!
We studied what they did and said based on our interviews with them and we came up with a mental toughness plan that worked!
Does your child perform better in practice than they do in the game or when the "Lights Come On"?
Do they seem like they are losing their love for the game?
Do you want to help them?
If you answered yes to these questions then you are in the right place. I look forward to sharing what we learned with you!
