Attentional Focus and Concentration
Removing the psychological barriers that stop an athlete using the talent they already have.
At VRC I practise the premise of focus and completion. I work with coaches on attentional focus and concentration, for their players and for themselves. As a practitioner of sports psychology this is of the utmost importance to me: helping develop coaches and their athletes in this area. I help both parties remove the psychological barriers that interfere with their ability to use their talent. This is where learning about focus and concentration comes into play.
Athletic scenario: attentional focus
I have introduced this concept to many of the teams I have worked with during my years as a mental performance consultant. When practices are dull or team participation is lacking, I have enlisted several tools for focus. One of them is team building drills or team talks — removing players from the field for a while and letting them know how important focus is in their sport, especially during practice, so it is less likely to carry over into games.
