Matt Scholes who has been working closely with Singapore Gymnastics in bringing Positive Sports Coaching practices to our Technical Members, have recently presented at the 7th World Congress on Positive Psychology 2021 – “The Impact of a Positive Psychology Intervention on Gymnastics Coaches & Athletes Preparing for Olympic Trials”. This positive psychology intervention involved working with an elite Gymnastics Club
in Australia that has 4 of the top 6 gymnasts in the country all competing for 1 place in the Australian Olympic team. The focus of this intervention was to build the mental fitness of the athletes, enable them to cope with the rigors of training, the challenges life throws at them and to be able to thrive in the pressure of competition. It was a virtual conference this year - here is the 3 minute video presentation and for those who are interested in the summary of the presentation, we have also linked the poster summary below.

Once again, congratulations Matt and we can't wait to the next installation of Positive Sports Coaching Gym Workshop #3!
