Description
The fact is that you can’t reach your true potential as a soccer player without training the mental dimension.
I’ve coached club soccer and U-18’s for almost 25 years and this is probably the best mental toughness coaching guide for this sport I’ve ever seen. It’s easily written, covers every aspect involved in developing a mentally tough team and players, and your sense of humor throughout makes reading it a pleasure. I was always a little tentative about talking about the mental side with my players, but not anymore. Now I have a “bible” to follow and refer back to. Great book! Thanks – Jon R, California

Dr. G, I’m the starting keeper for a D-1 program out West and used to find myself struggling if I let in an early goal. I’d get into overthinking and worrying about making more mistakes, or the coaches pulling me. This would only make me more nervous and slow me down. My dad downloaded your audio series after the last season and I have been “working” with you ever since! The difference in my mindset has been incredible. I have learned to control my concentration, let my mistakes go (even if I let in a soft goal which I never do anymore LOL!) and stay calm under pressure. My confidence has grown and I know I am a better player than I have ever been! Thanks for all of your help! – Danny, Virginia
