GottaLoveCTHockey's video: Mental Skill Tip: Planning What s Next

So often, the lessons we learn playing hockey help us be successful in other areas of life. In this difficult time, we believe that hockey's lessons may be more helpful for our young viewers than ever. Last month, as the regular season drew to a close, we filmed this tip with Clinical and Sport Psychologist Dr. Jason Emery: Planning What's Next. After all, we thought that we could! The coming months would follow a predictable path for many in our hockey community -- perhaps Regionals or Nationals, tryouts, spring break, improving grades, playing spring sports. Because of the COVID-19 issues facing our world, it may now seem impossible to do just that – plan what's next. But, Dr. Emery's tips for reflection and evaluation remind players that they can work on mental skills anywhere, any time...even when they can't get on the ice.
