Book excerpt: THE ONLY SPORTS PSYCHOLOGY WORKBOOK THAT'S EXCLUSIVELY DESIGNED FOR ICE HOCKEY PLAYERS TO BUILD MENTAL TOUGHNESS AND BOOST THEIR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE Players hear it all the time... "Hockey is 90% Mental, and 10% Physical" "It's All in Your Head" "The Only One that Can Stop You is You" "You have to be Mentally Tough!" But what exactly do those sayings mean??? Without something concrete, it's difficult for players to understand what it specifically takes to have a mental approach primed for success. And rather than have a debate with someone who knows nothing about mental training or sports psychology... or read about theories and mental hacks that may or may not work off some random website...why not use a detailed, interactive, and engaging workbook that shows and teaches athletes how specific Sports Psychology concepts directly impact their performance on the ice? That's exactly what you've found here!

And unfortunately in society today all athletes are under the spot light as they are judged by many of their friends, family, and peers by the level of success they have on the ice, which makes it absolutely crucial for athletes to be mentally tough and resilient. Thus, after completing our workbook athletes will undoubtedly be equipped with the Mental Tools to: 1. Develop Supreme Confidence in their Skills and Abilities to Flourish 2.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ability to maintain strength, speed, endurance, and quickness throughout a season is vital to the success of a team. The purpose of this study was to assess selected physiological and performance components of a men's D-I hockey team over the course of a season. Seventeen members of a NCAA Division I men's ice hockey players volunteered to be evaluated. Testing was conducted three times over the season: before the first week of official practice (Pre); during the first week after returning from Christmas break (Mid); and the week following the last competition of the season (Post). Three on-ice tests and eight off-ice tests were administered over the course of four days. The first day of testing consisted of anthropometric measurements (Jackson/Pollock skin fold test and body weight), vertical jump using a Vertec TM, push-ups, and the Reed Repeat Sprint test. Curl ups, 6.1 meter acceleration, 44.8 meter and 38.7 meter sprint tests were administered during the second day. During the third day of testing, the Forestry Aerobic Step Test, 6 RM flat bench press, and 6 RM back squat were administered. The Gilling Agility Test and the sit and reach test on the final day. The results showed significant, p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding and developing expertise is an important concern for any researcher or practitioner working in elite or high performance sport. Whether it's identifying talented young athletes or developing methods for integrating cutting-edge sport science into daily coaching practice, scientists, coaches and researchers all need to understand the skills, characteristics, and knowledge that distinguish the expert performer in sport. The Routledge Handbook of Sport Expertise is the first book to offer a comprehensive overview of current research and practice in the emerging field of sports expertise. Adopting a multi-disciplinary, multi-faceted approach, the book offers in-depth discussion of methodological and philosophical issues in sport expertise, as well as the characteristics that describe sporting ‘experts’ and how they can be facilitated and developed. Exploring research, theory and practice, the book also examines how scientists and practitioners can work together to improve the delivery of applied sport science. With contributions from many of the world’s leading researchers in expertise and skill acquisition in sport, the Routledge Handbook of Sport Expertise is important reading for any advanced student, researcher, coach or sport science support officer looking to better understand this cutting-edge topic.
Download or read book Mental Health Challenges in Elite Sport Balancing Risk with Reward written by Tadhg Eoghan MacIntyre and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elite sport typically provides obvious rewards in terms of recognition, finance and acclaim for athletic performance. Increasingly, we are becoming aware of the risks that elite athletes, their entourage, including families, sport-science support team and coaches are exposed to. Twelve original articles, seven commentaries and a corrigendum, are structured in a five chapter format. Chapter 1, comprising the Editorial, is titled “An Overview of Mental Health in Elite Sport: Changing the Play Book” to reflect the advocacy role of this article. Chapter 2 (“Finding the Sweet Spot”) amplifies the voice of key stakeholders across three qualitative studies with three additional commentaries. Quantitative evidence is presented in Chapter 3 which has the sub-title the “State of Play.” Chapter 4, entitled the “Field of Play”, includes three original publications which present contrasting conceptual approaches to guide researchers in hypothesis generation, formulation and implementation science. Finally, in Chapter 5, “Seeing the Ball Early”, prospective perspectives are provided in three publications reinforced by two commentaries. The future thinking ideas includes the use of virtual reality training, a broadening of the concept of mental health literacy, tackling stigma and focusing on the potential positive effect of the natural environment on well-being and recovery. To date the research topic has generated widespread in the field. For example, several articles have generated an Altmetric score above 40 with one publication meriting an Altmetric score of 102. We envisage that the impact of this e-book will not simply be measured in citations, views, downloads nor social media impact, but in the discourse that emerges from this collection of contributions from a combined total of 53 authors from across three continents. It is our hope that this e-book, providing a snapshot of global challenges for elite athletes mental health and well-being, becomes a touchstone for researchers and practitioners in the field.

Download or read book The Psychosocial Impact of Sports related Concussion in Elite Youth Ice Hockey Players written by Andrea Lynn Jubinville and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concussion can have adverse long term effects in the cognitive and behavioral development of children and adolescents. Research continues to highlight the fact that children and adolescents are more susceptible to concussion and take longer to recover from this injury. At present, there is a paucity of research evaluating the long-term effects of concussion in children and adolescents. The purpose of this study was to examine the social, emotional, and behavioral functioning of elite youth ice hockey players at baseline and post-concussion. Participants included 76 elite youth ice hockey players between 13-17 years from Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta. Control participants were matched to injured players at the time of injury. Participants completed the Behavior Assessment Scale for Children, Self Report Questionnaire (BASC-2, Adolescent Form) at baseline and 7 days and 3 months post-concussion. The results of the first analysis which examined group changes in psychological functioning using a 2 x 3 (group-by-occasion) fixed effect ANOVA with repeated measures on the second factor showed no significant findings. Athletes in the concussed group were similar to the athletes in the non-injured control group on the 5 composites and 16 subscales of the BASC-2. Results examining change at the individual level using the Reliable Change Index (RCI) showed slightly more concussed athletes (15.8%) with both reliable worsening and clinically meaningful scores on the BASC-2 compared to control participants (10.5%) at 7-10 days post injury. However, at 3 months post injury, there was no difference, as 15.8% of concussed athletes and 15.8% of control participants showed both reliable worsening and clinically meaningful scores on the BASC-2. Although the findings are promising in suggesting a favorable psychological outcome for youth athletes after concussion, it is still important for clinicians to evaluate and monitor psychological functioning after injury, as some athletes may develop ongoing psychological concerns requiring intervention.
