Micheal Lodewyks

Author, Teacher, Coach & Athlete

Growing up, I competed in a myriad of sports. As time went on, my passion led me to teach sport-related courses and coach volleyball and tennis. However, my true epiphany about the significance of mental training for sports came later in life.

 

I identified a glaring gap: athletes, coaches, and parents recognized the mind's importance but were at a loss on how to hone it. "On the Ball" bridges this gap, equipping you with the mental tools to elevate your game. Don't merely meet your potential; surpass it by being ON THE BALL.
