Are you "only as good as your last game"? Is it really just a
matter of "keeping your eye on the ball"? Pure Sport: Practical
Sport Psychology explains in everyday language the whys and
wherefores of contemporary sport psychology - pinpointing what
works and what doesn't when it comes to performance enhancement. As
the title suggests, Pure Sport goes back to basics by highlighting
practical concerns for those who are involved with competitive
sport at every level - from junior club to international elite.
Drawing on their considerable experience as both academic
researchers and applied sport psychologists, the authors present a
powerful array of techniques for channelling and harnessing mental
skills with the goal of improving sporting performance. The
interventions that they describe have all been tried and tested in
competitive settings, but here, for the first time, the
psychological techniques underlying them are brought together in a
single volume that uniquely blends sound theory with good practice.
Liberally sprinkled with practical examples, evocative photographs
and clear diagrams, Pure Sport is essential reading for anyone with
an active involvement or interest in sport. It will help coaches,
teams and sports people alike to develop their mental edge and so
realise their true potential in sport and through sport.
