'The Mental Game' offers both a theoretical framework in which anticipation, perception, attention, and memory processes play a big role in training as well as diagnostic tools and useful examples for training cognitive abilities. Includes more than 70 game activities
Top handball athletes Andy Schmid, Uwe Gensheimer, and Domagoj Duvnjak not only perceive everything that is happening around them, but they can also foresee the next game situations, allowing them to anticipate their opponents and win games. This mental speed sets the foundation to create master performances in extremely complex situations. This book offers both a theoretical framework in which anticipation, perception, attention, and memory processes play a big role in training as well as diagnostic tools and useful examples for training cognitive abilities. To round out training, the authors also include more than 70 game activities which can be incorporated into practice to train players’ cognitive skills and improve their mental game.
