Applying Educational Psychology in Coaching Athletes

This book is a tour de force on the practice of coaching, covering the ultimate truths that define successful coaches and athletes, whether a bench-sitter or Olympic gold medalists.I study the field of sports and behavioral psychology from many angles and I have never seen anything that comes close to educating coaches and athletes as this book. Applying Educational Psychology in Coaching Athletes offers the wisdom of not only one of the world's greatest coaches, but also distills hundreds of classic works of other coaches, researchers and thinkers.If there is one single book a coach, athlete, parent, partner, or business leader should read and re-read on sports (and life) this is it. Read it first as an education, then re-read it with a specific team or person in mind and it will change your life as a coach, leader or parent, and it will change the people you work with.

I have just read this book cover to cover and having finished I'm about to start again.This is the most inspirational coaching book I have ever read I cannot rate it highly enough. Mark Fricker (Judo Coach)

After reading Dr. Huber's book and watching his webinar's, I've now learned to fill in the cognitive aspect that was missing sometimes in my junior and professional golfers. Dr. Huber answers so many questions about developing the best athlete for any sport you are coaching, quantifying the strategies that bring about true long lasting improvement! If you want the best for your athletes, you MUST read and use Dr. Huber's techniques.Tony Luczak, DirectorMississippi State University Institute of Golf

This is the one of the most useful coaching books I ever read. It changed everything for me. The only downside I keep giving my copies to my coaching friends and having to buy another to replace it!

Really informative for a coach and easy to apply to coaching situations. Will definitely help me in the coming seasons to understand the mindset and ways to coach the players as well as understanding my own errors and succeses
