There's just one problem: their old rivals, the Bandits, stand in their way. Can Zoe and the rest of the Sting apply these mental game skills to finally defeat the Bandits, or will the Bandits steal away the championship rings? In You Got This! 2, players will learn: the importance of practicing the concepts from book one ; adversity and failure are part of the game, so it's important to have a plan to overcome these situations ; to focus on things they can control, like emotions and attitude, rather than things they can't, such as umpires, weather, the crowd, etc. ; the importance of an Arrows-Out attitude rather than Arrows-In ; what self-talk is and four rules of self-talk to help them play with confidence ; ways to practice the mental game on and off the field with fun hands-on activities ; and ways to use these same skills to deal with challenging situations in everyday life. This book is ideal for coaches looking to give their entire team a competitive edge. Writing assignments, discussion questions, a review section, and mental game tips for coaches and parents are included.
