Mental Toughness on and off the field (course, rink, stage etc)

Last night one of our sports psychologists appeared on Channel 10’s 6pm with George Negus show giving comments about the latest rugby league controversy. The story can be watched online at:

At Condor Performance we strongly believe that the best ways to reduce ugly on and off field incidents is by giving properly qualified people (sport and performance psychologists rather than crisis management experts) access to developing athletes in order to plant the seeds that will grow into mental toughness – as we know it. Generally we focus more on the on field emotional control side of the equation but normally – when this is done properly – it flows naturally into showing much greater emotional control away from competition.
