Pymble Elite Sportswomen’s Program

Attention all Pymble student-athletes and their parents!

A new suite of practical resources has been developed by the NSW Office of Sport, in collaboration with sport psychologist Fiona McCarthy, to enhance athletes’ knowledge and application of key psychological skills and strategies both in and out of sport.

This initiative supports the NSW Government’s Future Champions strategy, which seeks to empower sport participants and all who support them (including parents, coaches, sporting organisations, and schools). By exploring these resources, you can learn more about how to:

• Manage anxiety and pressure in sport
• Develop effective time management
• Build positive self-talk
• Mentally prepare for competition
• Create effective routines
• Set goals for success
• Use mental imagery
• Strengthen self-regulation skills

We encourage you to click here to view the resources. They are designed to benefit all student-athletes in their sporting journey.
