Description

The Basketball Essentials Package gives players the sport-specific tools to master the mental side of the game.

You can have great form, speed, and court vision—but if nerves hijack your focus, if missed shots spiral into frustration, or if confidence fades under pressure, your game will always fall short of your potential.

The Basketball Essentials Package combines two of Dr. G’s most impactful basketball programs—Using Your Head to Play Championship Basketball and Basketball with the Competitive Edge—to help athletes strengthen both mindset and body awareness so they can perform freely when the game is on the line.

Whether you’re stuck in a shooting slump, overthinking on the court, or simply want to bring more consistency and composure to every play, this package delivers the practical, proven system that’s helped players at every level compete with confidence, focus, and calm under pressure.

What You’ll Learn

With the Basketball Essentials Package, you’ll discover how to:

Recognize and avoid the mental traps that cause slumps.
Stay cool, calm, and confident when the game is on the line.
Let go of missed shots, turnovers, and mistakes before they affect your next play.
Build championship-level concentration and mental toughness.
Manage last-minute nerves, negative thinking, and self-doubt.
Trust your training, play freely, and perform with resilience.
Learn to pass, shoot, and defend in the clutch.

The Bottom Line

The Basketball Essentials Package helps players move past fear, build confidence, and turn pressure into performance.

You’ll train both your mind and your body to stay steady under stress—so you can lead, shoot, and play your best when it matters most.

Train your mind. Tune your body. Play your game like a champion.

Testimonials

A real breakthrough book for athletes! Having been frustrated using traditional cognitive-behavioral approaches with athletes experiencing freezing, choking or the yips, this book packs in all of the information you need to make a wonderful impact with athletes suffering from these recurrent sports performance issues. I was able to put the breakthrough therapy of `brainspotting’ to immediate use with my clients and the results were spectacular! I would highly recommend this book and its techniques to all practitioners who work with athletes. You will be thrilled with your results. But that’s not all. The authors wrote this book so that athletes could also benefit. They carefully put together treatment strategies that athletes can employ even without a therapist. I recommend this not just for therapists who work with athletes, but for athletes themselves!

I want to let you know how much I enjoy and respect your series, “14 Steps.” I coach a small high school and your program not only helped my team play better under pressure, it significantly helped my 17 year old daughter who’s a three sport athlete. She used to think too much and get too nervous going into games. Now she plays the way she practices, relaxed and aggressively. Thanks for your product.

Gail

B. has improved a lot on the basketball court since she started using your audio program! The change in her confidence, aggressiveness and focus has taken her game to a higher level. Most of all we are most happy to see that our daughter is once again having fun playing ball! Thanks so much

Basketball Parents

Your new program has really helped both of my kids even though they are in different sports! My daughter used to get too nervous before she played and she told me how much more relaxed and focused she feels now and I can see it in her level of confidence and success on the field. My son had a long history of doing better in practice than competition, leaving him frustrated and us not knowing how to help him. What a difference I see in him now when he competes under pressure. Thanks so much — you’re a great teacher!

Parent

I’ve been coaching 20 years and this is one of the most versatile mental toughness training sets I’ve run across. It’s loaded with great exercises and stories that really work. I strongly recommend it to all my athletes.

Dennis

Coach G, Thanks for the downloads. I absolutely love the content. You have opened my kids eyes and I have seen the difference immediately in their smiles and improved play. What a gift!

Kris R

I’ve downloaded your 14 Steps and have been listening to them with my son. It is having a very positive impact on both of us! I am so grateful that I discovered your work

Micheal

Dr. G, You did a GREAT job with 14 Steps. I can’t tell you how much it has helped me relax and focus! My congrats and sincere thanks

Gianluca

Thanks so much! I finally learned how to get my parents on the same page that I’m on. They’re actually helping me now! Go Figure! It has made things so much much easier for me to do my job. I think this is a critically important book for coaches in any sport.

Jack

I just love your new book! Parents on my team were driving me nuts and making me really angry, getting in the way of me doing a decent job of coaching. This book has helped me get things in perspective and to recruit my parents to help me! I feel like I now have a much better understanding of where they’re coming from and how to effectively work with them. Thank you! Thank you! I won’t quit coaching after all!

John B

I was listening to your “Parents” audio today on my drive and I have to say it opened my eyes! Especially the part where you talk about “good” and “bad” nervous. What a life skills gift to teach parents how to teach their kids how to roll with the “juice” that naturally comes up as you’re about to perform! The “Juice” is normal, it is what will fuel you. Don’t fear “The Juice” embrace it. Such a great audio! Thank you.

Wesley

This is a GREAT tool to use with any sport parents. I had the parents on my team listen to it in one of our meetings and I couldn’t believe the response. It opened their eyes. Doc, you have such a great way of presenting things. Your humor makes parents willing to listen to all the things they’ve been doing wrong and what they need to do to change without getting defensive. Bless you.

Ray B

Dr. G’s program has been a wonderful addition to my coaching. It has helped me train my athletes so that they consistently come through under pressure. The stories and exercises are easy to listen to and powerful and this program has become a regular part of my overall coaching.

Dan Hart

Alan, What I REALLY like about your audio series and workbook is that you take athletes through the exercises and personally teach them how to stay calm under pressure, relax the nights before big competitions and how to use visualization to improve performance. My kids love doing the relaxation exercises although they sometimes chuckle at your extreme Boston accent! Thanks for a great training tool!

Ed

Dr. G, I was very impressed with your techniques for learning concentration and focus as well as producing written goals that can be converted into results. Most importantly you developed great systems for brushing off the Uncontrollables. Thank you so much for such a helpful training tool!

Colorado

I was cut from my high school team last season because I was too tentative and intimidated by the other girls. I felt like a total failure. I wanted to quit and then my mom found your…book. After working with it, I got really motivated to start working with a trainer all spring and summer and now I’m looking forward to tryouts. My confidence and intensity are back, my game has improved and I am now mentally tougher than ever. Thank you!

Carly

Dr. G, I just finished reading This is Your Brain On Sports and I absolutely loved it! It opened my eyes to what really causes athletes to fall apart and it will help me be more effective with my players!

Frank

An eye opening approach to working with athletes. As a former athlete and current coach this book has opened my eyes to outside factors that can truly have a very debilitating effect on the performance of athletes. The challenges of sport require mind and body to be in sync and athletes may experience the ripples of underlying problems coming out in their play that may have no relation to sport, and may not have happened recently. The authors have found a new approach to understanding and treating the most unreachable athletes. I suggest this book for any counselor, coach, teacher, parent and or athlete that may be looking for answers as to “Why?”. It’s all relevant when it comes to life experiences and this book explains why sport is no exception.

Amazon Reviewer

I purchased your Competitive Edge for basketball last Christmas. The results were stunningly good! As a parent and Coach, I firmly believe in reading and experiencing what the kids are receiving in order that I can answer their questions and understand what they are trying to do. I have to say your program is first rate!

Will

Amazing Book! Purchased this book for my husband and once he started reading the book, he couldn’t put it down. He said it was fascinating and so “spot on”. My husband played professional ball and my son is currently at a Div I college playing ball. My husband said that if he knew what this book speaks of back when he played pro ball, he would have had a longer pro career. Every athlete, coach, and parent (especially father) of an athlete will benefit from reading this book
