Physical preparation plus mental preparation equal sport confidence. Choose a sport. List three elements within the sport that would need to be considered to physically and mentally prepare your athletes for competition and sport confidence. Identify strategies for how each element can be taught. For example, in volleyball, one element is court lines. Strategies for teaching players what the court lines are, where they are located and what each player's position is in relation to them would be:
Find the white (court marking) lines
"Follow the leader" and actually walk the lines
During training, check athlete knowledge by asking the player to find the nearest court line
