Transcript

Today, I am getting the opportunity to train with amazing coaches and players. Today, I will be enthusiastic and positive when I play. I am grateful for this opportunity that I have and I will give my 100% effort to get everything out of it.

I have an obligation to my parents, my coaches, and my future self to be completely locked in all day. I will be appreciative of this opportunity and I won't show any frustration.

My coaching voice will remind me that enjoyment makes playing well possible for me. I can control how I think about different situations, and then I am in control of my mind and my actions. By thinking in context of fun, fear will go away.
