Mental skills training has never been optional.
I’ll stand on that all day.
I can tell within minutes of working with a pitcher if she’s been taught how to handle the mental side of this game….and when she hasn’t.
It shows up fast like this 👇
❌ She spirals after one mistake
❌ She talks to herself in the WORST ways (yikes yall, so mean!)
❌ She’s tight before she even steps on the mound
We drill mechanics over and over (as we should), but if we ignore what’s going on between the ears, we’re leaving a huge part of her game undeveloped.
Confidence isn’t random and composure isn’t personality…those are SKILLS.
And they need reps just like anything else.
This is why I built Next Pitch Nation. So athletes, parents, and coaches all have the tools to actually train this part of the game.
Our girls deserve that support.
