[quote=Anonymous]At that age most kids seem to build confidence when they do something good in a game (an assist, a goal, block a shot). You will notice after a goal kids come back guns a blazing. For that reason, my strategy has been to tell my child to remember a time when he did something amazing. Replay that awesome goal from a previous game or when he scored a penalty, etc for the duration of the game. In addition when he is getting subbed in or about to start a game to go in with a positive posture, head up, back straight, on your toes. You can tell some of the nervous players come in with arms folded and heads down sometimes....to me you are admitting defeat already. Just some techniques we use. Perhaps even just talking about an awesome game in the car before a game will give him a boost with him not noticing. [/quote]
