Mental performance coaching for rugby
Rugby demands a strong body, but also a cool head in contact, at the lineout and on goal kicks. As a mental performance professional, I help you train confidence, focus and pressure management so you hold your level for all 80 minutes.
Sound familiar?
What we work on most in rugby.
Mental performance work in rugby covers the individual and the team: in this sport, nobody plays alone.
Lineout or scrum mistakes
One lost lineout and you start doubting every throw.
Fear of contact
After a big hit, your body brakes before you decide.
Pressure from the team and club
You want to live up to the jersey and that tightens you up.
Focus for 80 minutes
You start strong and switch off in the second half.
Coming back from injury
You are cleared, but your confidence is not back yet.
