"Wow, I was blown away! This
book honestly couldn't apply more to my current situation."
-Katie Repole, NCAA Division I Softball Player
“I love a team full of leaders. I
have constantly seen the greatest physically skilled athletes unable to
perform at a high level and average players excel in our game due to
their mental skill set...a remarkable job in this book...in-depth and
sophisticated while remaining easy to read and use.”
-from the foreword

in your hands will do.”
-Kevin Shelton, Texas Glory Head Coach

Thank you for the illumination."
-Jeff Schroder, Cy-Fair

run! This book is a gift to the fastpitch athlete and the softball
community.
