Our Kids Play Hockey The Ride To The Rink - Balancing Your Ego: Confidence vs. Arrogance in Youth Hockey
Ever wondered how the line between confidence and arrogance can make or break a young hockey player's career?Join Mike as he helps us navigate the delicate dance of cultivating a healthy ego in youth hockey. We're not just talking about puffing chests and swagger—there's an art to balancing self-assurance with humility, and it's crucial for players who want to shine individually without dimming their team's collective spirit. From leading by example in drills to handling the highs and lows on the ice, we delve into the strategies that help players boost their confidence without veering into cockiness. It's all about that psychological edge that can elevate a player's game and, ultimately, their path to hockey greatness.
In this episode, we also discuss body language. A missed shot or a penalty shouldn't slump shoulders; instead, we highlight the power of bouncing back with an attitude that inspires your teammates. We share insights on how to be the player everyone looks up to, the one who celebrates a teammate's success as loudly as their own. Whether you're crushing it on the penalty kill or just offering an encouraging fist bump, it's these moments that forge stronger athletes and tighter-knit teams. So, lace up for an episode that's all about striking that perfect emotional tone on the ice—one that says "I've got this," without ever needing to shout it.
