Jeff Meeker delivers 14 competitive games that will help your athletes “think” and play a better game. He shows how to structure this training to make it challenging, productive and game-like.

Coach Meeker demonstrates activities that will improve four key mental areas for your team:

• Communication: As a player, do you make your teammates better? Understand the importance talking and listening, learn to pull together in challenging situations and to problem solve as a group.
• Focus, Concentration and Cue Utilization: Are your players paying attention to the right things during a game? Sustain concentration, improve court vision and learn to assist a player in processing what they see.
• Risk Management Games: Are we playing smart? Focus areas in this segment include; pushing the envelope while playing smart, rewarding good errors, penalizing bad errors and maintaining focus.
• Competiveness and Cooperation: How do we combine these attributes to be our best? Be competitive, train harder, motivate your athletes to play better and cooperate with teammates to make the team better.
