Why Does It Help?
Success in sport often comes down to one key factor: how long you can stay mentally engaged.
Athletes who master this skill outperform those who drift mentally, even if their physical abilities are equal.
Our courses teach you how to prepare well, perform at your peak and stay locked in from start to finish.

“I loved the sessions and got so much out of it. For too long, I've been trying to focus on improving things about myself which, to date, I haven't had much success with... and the idea of trying to be better at the things I'm already strong in — really flipped my mental outlook. I just loved the imagery that went into each session, it made everything so easy to remember. Thank you :-)”

Frequent Questions
What is "In The Game" and who is it for?
"In The Game" is a sport psychology and mental performance coaching centre tailored primarily (but not exclusively) for young athletes aged 12–21 across all sports. Our mission is to equip athletes with mental tools — like focus, resilience, confidence and self talk — that are often the difference between good and great. Whether you are a junior tennis player aiming for state titles or a soccer midfielder striving for confidence through consistency, our programs help you build the mindset to match and elevate your physical skills.
What sets 'In The Game' apart from other coaching programs?
Our program stands out due to its focus on young athletes, integrating evidence-based high performance coaching techniques combined with the practical application of sport psychology tactics. We emphasise not only performance enhancement but also personal growth, ensuring athletes develop skills that benefit them both in and out of sport. Our resources are designed to be engaging and age-appropriate, making mental training accessible and effective for younger populations.
How soon can improvements be seen with mental coaching?
While individual experiences vary, many athletes report noticeable improvements in focus, confidence, and stress management within a few weeks of consistent practice. For instance, incorporating daily visualisation exercises can enhance an athlete’s ability to perform under pressure, as they become more accustomed to envisioning successful outcomes. Similarly, working on composure and staying in the game can help other athletes remain competitive until the last play - knowing that there is a direct correlation between staying in the game for a prolonged period and success.
What topics are covered in our courses?
Our courses delve into key mental performance areas, including topics like:
- Positive Self-Talk: Transforming inner dialogue to boost confidence.
- Goal Setting: Establishing SMART goals to maintain motivation.
- Visualisation: Mentally rehearsing success to enhance performance.
- Focus and Concentration: Techniques to stay present during competition.
- Emotional Regulation: Managing nerves and pressure effectively.
For instance, our visualisation module teaches athletes to create vivid mental images of successful performance, a technique extensively utilised by Olympians like Michael Phelps.
