Here is a simple team-building activity designed to facilitate discussion with an individual athlete or your whole team that is working toward improving their mental toughness.
Directions:
Have athletes think of moments in their sport when they were frustrated, mad, discouraged or disappointed. Then have them come up with a mentally moronic response to each moment. Finally, have athletes develop a mentally tough response for each moment. Athletes should record all their responses in a worksheet they can save for future reference.
