“I learned early in my career that proper mental training and preparation are what differentiates the good from the great performers in sports. Bring Your ‘A’ Game is a must-read for young athletes looking to get the most out of their potential and perform at the highest level on the field, on the court, or in the classroom.”
–Brad Woodall, former Major League Baseball player, owner of Woodall Baseball Instruction, Middleton, WI

“Bring Your ‘A’ Game introduces young athletes, their parents, and their coaches to fundamental principles for enhancing the level and consistency of sport performance. Dr. Etnier offers lively real-world examples from high-level sport and practical exercises to connect with readers. Best of all, many of these valuable concepts can also be applied outside of sport to enhance performance in other important areas of young people’s lives.”
