How I Built a Mental Game System That Won 4 State Championships

Описание: This is Part 2 of my story. After becoming a Mental Performance Coach, I had to actually apply what I learned with my own team → https://coachfreetraining.com

In Part 1, I shared how I quit volleyball due to performance anxiety and eventually became a coach who kept losing in the big moments. After those back-to-back devastating losses, I got certified as a Mental Performance Coach.

But here's the thing. Learning the science was the easy part. Figuring out how to actually teach it to high school athletes without becoming a full-time sports psychologist? That took some trial and error.

I'm breaking down the exact system I built: the Snapback Routine, Mindset Mondays, plug-and-play mental training that fits into 5-20 minutes per week. This is what helped us win four consecutive state championships, including a comeback from championship point against a team that hadn't won in 36 years.

🧐 What You'll Learn:
🔹 3-step Snapback Routine (breath, reset word, reset signal) that my athletes used under pressure
🔹 How I structured mental training into our season without losing practice time
🔹 Why this system makes coaching easier, not harder
🔹 The real story behind our fourth state championship comeback
🔹 How to build a common mental skills language with your team
🔹 Why "shake it off" doesn't work and what does

👋🏼 I'm Coach Bre - a mental performance coach for girl athletes, Co-Founder of The Elite Competitor, and a long-time head volleyball coach and 4-time state champion.

P.S. A few stats worth knowing:
1) 70% of youth athletes quit sports by age 13, with performance anxiety cited as a leading factor (National Alliance for Youth Sports, 2019)
2) Athletes who use pre-performance routines show 23% improvement in consistency under pressure compared to those who don't (Journal of Applied Sport Psychology, 2018)
3) 85% of coaches report lack of time as the #1 barrier to implementing mental training, yet teams that dedicate just 10-15 minutes weekly see measurable performance improvements (Sport Psychology Research Institute, 2021)
