🎶Let’s hear it for band members! 🎶
Found this little piece of paper on the track this morning. Look at the detail for this clarinet player and what they have to do (besides play the instrument!) for what I’m assuming is a halftime football game performance. They have to practice, have confidence, focus, get nervous and more ... just like athletes.
Thank you bands that provide great music and entertainment for us!

I overheard a mom on the phone while running errands earlier say, “I feel like all we do is work to pay for our kids’ sports ...” then I come across this article.

Camarillo and Ventura friends: This summer I've done a few 90-minute mental game coaching workshops for athletes who will be starting high school. I'd like to offer another one before the school year gets underway.
Some of the topics will include:
*transitioning to high school sports
*balancing school/sports/social life
*pre-game readiness
*confidence
*focus
*dealing with adversity
Text/call me if you have an athlete, team, or know someone who may benefit from this. Julie ~ (805) 660-8996
