I’ve got bragging rights to share!  J  Sam’s soccer team *won* the Gold Division Challenge State Cup tournament!

Her team played the team that cut her two years ago.   They were pretty evenly matched with a lot of back and forth – both teams having some good opportunities that just didn’t go in.  Sarah had a gorgeous shot that just missed.  Into stoppage time the other team was up by 1.  A teammate passed it up to Sarah who flicked it to a forward.  The forward was able to get the ball through the other team’s defender’s legs and she SCORED!!!  Tying the game.  They kicked off and the whistle blew!  They scored with about 30 seconds left in the game.  Talk about close!

They then played two 15 minute overtimes with the score remaining 1-1.  Then it was PKs. Sarah stepped up and drilled her PK, winning the game!  It was soooooo nice to see her score on her old team.  What a nail biter!

Sam played the entire game both games.  After the win on Saturday, her smile was worth everything!  She was soooo happy!  Thank you so much!

Natalie is doing well over all and played a good game Friday! Scored 1 and had 2 assists and they won 4-0. Her coach really wants her to take more shots herself…:)

Thanks for all you do for Natalie!!! You make a huge difference in her life ?

Just wanted to let you know that two weeks ago I competed in the fencing Summer Nationals. I competed in two events, Div 1A and Div 1. I won the Div 1A event which is half a step below the top level of Div 1 making me the Div 1A National Champion and took 22nd in Div 1 which will move me into the top 60 on the national points list.

Thanks for all the help and work we did together it really helped me a lot during the day and through all the training I did leading up to it.

Your Sports Mindset Pyramid is a thing of beauty! It spells out the path to confidence really well, and makes this mental game stuff tangible.

I am a licensed mental health counselor and a youth and high school soccer coach. Over the years I have incorporated psychological techniques into my coaching sessions to help my players develop positive self-esteem and mental toughness. For the last 2 years The Sports Mindset Gameplan has been my primary method of helping my young athletes accomplish growth and success in sport and in life. The content and concepts of this book are relevant to athletes in any sport and easily understood by my pre-teen aged kids. I highly recommend The Sports Mindset Gameplan for athletes wanting to improve their mental performance and coaches who want to help their athletes get to the next level!

We are through the first 4 sections of the book and kids are taking it seriously.  They have even used some of the terminology in our practices and games.  We are the leading the state (5A) in scoring per game and are looking to even our record on Friday.  Much improved over last year.

I know Lewis has found his work with you to be invaluable and we have found that it helps with life off the field too and helping grow to be confident, kind, positive on and off the field.
