Practical Help for Coaches and Athletes
5 Mar 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
As an amateur coach who has struggled with coaching's motivational and psychological aspects, this was a godsend. "Sport Motivation" was written for athletes and coaches, not academics, and presents a strong, coherent argument for improving or tuning the mental aspects of performance. I've integrated techniques based on Dr. Hodge's book and I feel they have improved my player's confidence, motivation and performance. I highly recommend for serious coaches and athletes looking to improve their performance.
