Sports Performance Analyst Drey Ricksbelieves many athletes train and practice expecting to perform under ideal conditions but, when things go slightly wrong, it can generate so much stress and ruin competitive performance due to lack of mental preparation. 

Mental preparation is a very broad topic within the arena of sports. The  purpose of having the proper mindset is to create a consistent performance up to your capabilities and talents in competition.  

In sports today some of the top athletes have rituals to help them to develop a pregame or warm-up routine that includes various mental game strategies, such as focus, confidence, trust, and creating a game plan Drey Ricks.

“Pregame routines instill confidence, focus, and a success-oriented mindset when the whistle blows.  In addition, pregame routines should be customized for each athlete,  depending on individual preferences, whether the athlete is competing at  home or away, and after determining what works for each person.”  Drey Ricks.
