Mental Toughness For Young Athletes: Eight Proven 5-Minute Mindset Exercises For Kids And Teens Who Play Competitive Sports
Perfect For Young Athletes 8+
A Life-Changing book That Young Athletes And Parents Can’t Stop Talking About!
Moses and Troy Horne here. Your mental toughness guides! If you are reading this you probably have a young athlete who struggles with in-game stress and maybe even sports performance anxiety. That is why this version was mostly written by Moses. As of the time of the writing of this book Moses Horne is a 15-year-old elite athlete who can talk directly about the triumphs and struggles of working towards being mentally tough. This is the only book that I know of with input from an actual young athlete.
My name is Troy Horne. I’m his dad. I am here to help the parents understand how to help their kiddos navigate this mental toughness journey. For more on that make sure that you pick up the Parent’s guide version of this book – Mental Toughness for Young Athletes ®: Eight Proven 5-Minute Mindset Exercises For Kids And Teens In Competitive Sports (Parent’s Guide) It’s super necessary. We know where you are and we know how to help you help your young athlete find their mental fortitude. We have purchased a lot of books about mental toughness in sports.
Most of the books that we read were not a good fit for young athletes because they were either written for adults or not written for youth athletes in COMPETITIVE sports. There is a difference.
Since there wasn’t anything out there for elite athletes I did what every youth sports parent does when they want to help their kid. I started my own team! JUUUUST KIDDING! (I probably should have, but I didn’t believe that I would be able to do it well. I lacked mental confidence myself I guess. We talk about that in the parent’s version of this book too.)
We took the long journey of ups and downs. We struggled to help our young athlete find his mental toughness. IT WAS ROUGH! Luckily along the way, we found the winning formula thanks to being able to talk with sports icons personally.
We launched a podcast together called Hoopchalk Basketball Podcast and on it, we interviewed sports MENTAL TOUGHNESS GIANTS like…
Chauncey BillupsTywanna SmithKeiko YoshimineEarl BoykinsJason Richardson andKobe Bryant!
We studied what they did and said based on our interviews and we came up with a mental toughness plan that worked! We wrote down what worked for our young athlete and we put it in this book so that you would be able to skip a lot of the struggle and failure part. No need for everyone to struggle right?
In this book, we are going to share with you what we learned from talking to NBA Athletes, NFL Athletes, EuroLeague Athletes, College Coaches, and College Athletes as well.
Does your child perform better in practice than they do when the game or when the “Lights Come On”?Do they seem like they are losing their love for the game?Do you want to help them?
If you answered yes to these questions then you are in the right place. This book is the answer that you have been looking for! I can say this with confidence because I have used everything that I am going to share with you in this book with my son and it has worked.
What a blessing to get the keys to mental toughness straight from greats! I look forward to sharing what we learned with you!
This stuff is a game-changer and it’s made specifically for young athletes!

Empowering and Accessible – The Best Mental Training for Young Athletes!
My 8-year-old son, who plays travel baseball, absolutely loves this book. “Mental Toughness For Young Athletes” is a fantastic resource that breaks down complex psychological concepts into simple, 5-minute exercises that kids can actually understand and apply.As a parent, I’ve seen how much pressure young athletes can feel on the field. This book provides practical tools for building confidence, overcoming mistakes, and staying focused during high-stakes games. My son finds the exercises engaging rather than like “homework,” and we often discuss the concepts together after his practices. It’s the perfect complement to his physical training, helping him develop the resilience needed to bounce back from a tough inning or a strikeout.If you have a child who is passionate about sports and wants to gain a mental edge, this book is an essential read. It’s empowering, easy to digest, and truly makes a difference in their overall performance and enjoyment of the game!

Worth buying
Amazing books! My son actually read the kids version and I just finished the adults. Very well written. Easy to understand. Short and to the point. Love it

A great must buy and easy read
Excellent book to read with your athlete. The teen one is great too. It’s also great advice for life. Great habits are what we become! A must buy for yourself and a person you care for.

Good concepts, needs editing
The book is just okay. The concepts are great — classic even. It is not well written or well edited, and even youngsters can point that out. It does not read well, and does not have clear key main points. The chapters are muddled, the “step-by-step exercises” are vague and hidden in too much unedited text. It’s just not a great book.With such critical feedback, why the 4-star review?Because it’s a good idea. I don’t like the author’s continuous use of slang — honestly, it hurts my brain — but if others speak and read this way comfortably, this book could offer a relatable take on sports mental toughness with some editing.However, if you want your child to learn to consume quality literature, find another book. (By the way, children can read and understand at a much higher level than they can speak. Use that to their advantage.)As a book co-written by a youngster and father duo, dad should have sought out better editors to help with the project. You can have a relatable young voice and still create a well-written book. So I give it an E for Effort. I hope they can write something more compelling next time because I think they are actually on to something.

Good book for 10+
My husband and 11 year old son have been reading this together – he said it’s a great book!

Mental Toughness taught simple!
Simple and easy read for my 17 year old baseball player. Parents, coaches and teachers preach mental toughness but no one could explain how to fulfill it. The 5 minute exercises helped him before he got on the field or in the batters box.

A Game-Changer for Aspiring Athletes – The Perfect Gift!
I bought this book on mental toughness for my little brother, who’s a dedicated soccer player and swimmer currently training hard to make it to the bigger leagues, and it was the perfect birthday gift!This book isn’t just about physical training; it really delves into the crucial mental aspect of sports. It’s filled with insights and techniques that are directly applicable to soccer, helping him to sharpen his focus, improve decision-making under pressure, and build resilience. He’s already talking about how he’s applying some of the strategies during his training sessions. For any young athlete serious about their sport, especially one aiming for higher levels, this book is an invaluable tool. It’s definitely helping him build the mental toughness needed to succeed.

Worth the read
Excellent book! Easy read. Still not able to get my son to sit down and finish it though. Teenagers.

Every young athlete should always have this book in his/her backpack!!

Essencialmente uma divagação feita com frases de vendedor, sem valor técnico e que não demonstram coisa alguma.

Som om någon plöjt YouTube på motivationsklipp och därefter beslutat sig för att skriva en bok.
C M Henderson –
Fantastic book with easy to understand examples and exercises to overcome obstacles to success – even though many of the examples were related to basketball, they were easy to apply to other disciplines. In our case ski racing. When you sign up on the author’s website he sends occasional emails with reminder material and thoughts for parents which is great to keep you on track and stop you falling back into your old ways. Highly recommend to anyone with an ambitious kid who wants to make it into a chosen field…
