Book Review:
......Focused for Fastpitch combines the
best qualities of a drill book and a
softball-specific guide to sport psychology,
ensuring that come game time everyone will
play at peak performance.
......Informative yet easy to read, mastering
the Focused for Fastpitch training principles
requires no prior experience, and each chapter
includes interactive exercises and charts to
help monitor progress. Each drill clearly
specifies the mental and physical skills
targeted, the goal, proper execution, coaching
tips, and variations for increasing or decreasing
difficulty. And for additional insight into
successful skill building, some favorite
drills are included from these top coaches:
--Gayle Blevins, University of Iowa

School’s College Prep Program

University, Fullerton

......Integrating concentration, confidence,
mental imagery, and energy regulation at
practice with softball-specific drills will
result in players reaching their potential
far sooner than practicing any of these
aspects alone. Applying the information in
Focused for Fastpitch is the best way to
gain the advantage.
