BUILDING COMPETITiVENESS - DAN ABRAHAMS

In all grades of footy, but especially youth and junior levels of football, building competitiveness and aggressiveness can be extremley hard, not that everyone HAS to have both of these qualities at those young ages but if they can start told develop them then my personal opinion is that they will be more likely to stay in footy/sport for the long term.

Again, give Dan a follow and receive gems like these every day, he generally posts 3 times a day every day!

BUILD COMPETITIVENESS – help your players them understand what motivates them (ego, winning, experience, purpose, values, mastery)...help them work on mental skills (attention, intensity, intent)...help them mentally rehearse effectively...help them build confidence/energy

HELP PLAYERS COMPETE BETTER – set acheiveable goals that help players focus on controllable tasks rather than uncontrollable performance factors...build player confidence by helping players choose 3 things that help them feel confident...practice self talk via a positive/energetic inner voice

PLAYER COMPETETIVENESS – help your players develop several motivational drivers (internal to external)...help your players learn your game model using desirerable difficulties (learning style)...help them build developmental frameworks and test those frameworks in training

TAKING CHARGE – don’t fail to take charge of yourself on the ground and defintely don't let things like the opposition, conditions and technical mistakes take charge of you

EFFORT – is less of a choice when players lack self belief, are uncertain about responsibilities, experience anxiety, can’t shift attention and/or feel threatened by coaches...it becomes more of a choice with mental skills in a positive environment

BODY LANGUAGE/MINDSET – a small shift in body language can make a big differnece to mindset...when players are distracted they can refocus by holding themselves attentive...when losing intensity they can re-energise themselves through positive gestures...when they drop in confidence they can execute with intent

COMPETETIVENESS – help players find their optimal state and help them focus on the pleasure of experiencing playing in this mental state...make this their number 1 objective/goal to achieve
