About this item

Win the Next Pitch! Essential Mental Game Skills for Young Baseball Players Parents and Coaches - help your players develop a great mental game with this exciting book! Baseball is a mental game. It’s a game that is played one pitch at a time. The goal is to be mentally ready for the most important pitch in any game—the very next one. Keeping young players calm and focused is key to success. Win the Next Pitch gives them the tools to do just that! Sport psychologist Dr. Curt Ickes wrote this book to help parents better prepare their 8-12-year-old baseball players to crush it on the field. This book introduces players to sport psychology skills usually reserved for older, more advanced athletes. The lessons are taught using concise and easy-to-understand language through a fun, relatable story. Win the Next Pitch will help young players elevate their game and make playing baseball even more enjoyable! Young readers will meet Jack, a new player on the Oak Grove Owls team. He loves baseball, but his excitement wanes after a disastrous first practice. As the Owls play their first games of the season, Jack experiences the same struggles with anxiety and confidence that most young baseball players do. Through Matt, a new friend on the team, Jack discovers quick ways to overcome anxiety, reset after failure, improve concentration, and increase confidence. These same mental game skills can apply to any performance situation, not just baseball! Young players will learn: How to play baseball one pitch at a time Quick resets after mistakes Professional-level skills to improve concentration and build confidence What pre-pitch routines are and how to use them Mental game skills that are used in a variety of stressful situations (not just sports) Specific ways to practice the mental game And so much more!
