If your daughter wants to play at the next level, this is the video she needs to see. 🎯 Grab the tools she needs → trainhergame.com/momMost athletes spend years training their bodies for college scouts. But the coaches doing the recruiting are quietly screening for something else entirely.After 14 years as a head volleyball coach, I watched talented athletes get removed from recruiting lists - not because of skill gaps, but because of what happened between the plays.👋🏼 I'm Coach Bre, a mental performance coach for girl athletes, Co-Founder of The Elite Competitor, and a head volleyball coach and 4-time state champion.In this episode, I'm breaking down 5 things college coaches look for beyond talent:✅ How she responds after mistakes (and what coaches are really watching)✅ What her body language says when things aren't going her way✅ How she treats her teammates under pressure✅ How she interacts with her parents and coaches at events✅ Whether she performs when the moment gets big - or plays it safeEvery single one of these is trainable. I'm also breaking down the Snapback Routine - the simple reset system athletes use to bounce back faster than their sport requires.If she has the talent, let's make sure the rest of her game matches it.⏱️ Key Moments:00:00 Introduction00:32 Why Mental Skills Matter in Recruiting02:12 #1: Response to Adversity03:15 The Snapback Routine04:35 Free Training Callout05:19 #2: Body Language06:40 #3: How You Treat Teammates08:28 #4: How You Treat Your Parents09:43 #5: Performing Under Pressure12:29 Recap & Final ThoughtsDrop a comment below and let me know which of the 5 hits home👇📩 Want to connect?

(NFHS)⚡️ Athletes who use mental skills training show a 43% improvement in competitive performance consistency under pressure.
