Mental Skills for Junior Tennis Players

Mental Skills for Junior Tennis Players is an interactive, experiential workbook designed for tennis players of any age and level. It helps players explore and develop the mental skills and resources that can support them in reaching their full potential. Beyond performance, this workbook can foster greater joy, appreciation, and personal growth in the sport. The exercises are designed to be practical and transferable, offering life skills that extend well beyond the tennis court. The workbook is organized into four sections which include reflecting on tennis identity and support systems, mental training practices before, during, and after matches, and an advanced section that helps players consolidate what they have learned into a practical daily or weekly routine. For parents and guardians, we also offer our companion resource, the workbook Mental Skills for Parents of Tennis Players, which mirrors many aspects of this workbook and provides interactive, experiential exercises designed for supporting junior tennis players and parent/guardian well-being.
