Tournament Time Preparation
“People who fear the unknown focus on what could go wrong. People who welcome the unknown focus on what could go right.”
For most people, unfamiliarity breeds stress. Preparing for the pressure of competition includes de-stressing conversations that flip the uncertainties into certainties. Anxiety is detectable through awareness in casual conversations. Once anxiety is recognized, strategies can be put into place to defuse the situation.
De-stressing conversational topics to discuss at tournament sites may include:
- The Surroundings, Court Speeds, and Weather Conditions
- The Athlete’s Health Concerns/Injuries
- Performance Goals and Expectations
- Self-Destruction Solutions
- Refocus Strategies
- Clear Performance Goals
- Opponent Profiling (When possible)
- Routines and Rituals
- Nutrition and Hydration
Talk through solutions to anxieties to ease the athlete’s nerves.
