Routines
• One of the most important aspects of sports that athletes can develop to improve their training and competitive performances.
• Enable athletes to be completely physically, technically, tactically, and MENATLLY ready to perform their best.
Routines
• Most often used before competitions to make sure that athletes are prepared to perform their best.
• Routines can be developed in training to ensure that athletes get the most out of their practice time.
Routines Enable Control
• The only thing athletes can control is themselves.
• Sport routines can increase control over their performances by enabling them to directly prepare every area that impacts their sport.

Routine vs. Superstition
• 90 Days ago where were you when you brushed your teeth in the morning?
• What did you eat for breakfast?
• What time did you workout?
• What did you do before bed?
Routine vs Superstition
• Superstitions have no practical impact on performance
• Superstitions can be very detrimental to your mental health.– Teach you to be “rigid thinkers”– Focus on the outcome– The need for a “perfect” scenario
• Superstitions are based on “LUCK”
“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.”
Routines vs Superstitions
• Eliminate superstitious thinking and maintain healthy routines by becoming a “process thinker.”
• “Process Thinkers” believe control lies with them.
• “Process Thinkers” strive for EXCELLENCE not PERFECTION
Routines vs Superstitions
You control your routines….your superstitions control you.
Developing Pre-Game Routine

routine is a progressive process that will take time before you have one that really works for you.
Developing a Pre-Game Routine
• Helps to write down your routine and to follow it as closely as possible. –Write down your routine, step by step–Make notes on what works and what
doesn’t work

anywhere– Food and drink
Developing a Pre-Game Routine
