Teaching Better Baseball

TBB Staff Psychologists Dr. Casey Cooper and Scott Schneider explain Sports Psychology and how athletes can train their minds to be tougher, more focused, and the power of positive thought.

Sports Psychologists seek to understand the impact that psychological factors have on physical performance, and the emotional influence that sports have on the athlete and family. When added to a training program, Sports Psychology can help athletes prevent problems and overcome difficulties when they occur. In this way, Psychologists specializing in this field assist athletes to achieve peak performance goals while maintaining their competitive edge. This mind and body approach helps athletes and their families with their overall growth and development. Sports Psychologists also help coaches and parents provide better support to their athletes.
