BOLTS ELITE MINDSET

The passion that a player has for the game is one of the greatest determinants of their future success. Passionate players have high levels of intrinsic motivation, and greater levels of resilience in the face of adversity. They will go the extra mile on or off the pitch to improve their game. When they are faced with challenges or setbacks, they will have the “grit” to bounce back stronger. These players are enthusiastic and full of energy every time they step on the pitch.

A player’s mindset is a combination of nature and nurture. Yes, there are intrinsic factors that affect a player’s love for the game, but their early experiences in soccer also play a massive role. Passion is contagious. Coaches that encourage players, put on engaging training sessions, and allow players to express themselves on the pitch are more likely to foster a team of passionate young soccer players. Surround yourself with good people in the soccer world, and your passion for the game will naturally grow.
