Here’s the question Dr. Cohn answers this week about how to help athletes shift their focus from the stands back to the game.

JOHN ASKS: “My 12 year old son is a hockey goalie for our AAA club in Canada. He seems to get nervous before big games and I asked him what seems to be the issue? He says he loses focus when he sees the coaches and other people watching him from the stands. How can I help him focus on the game instead of who is watching him play?”
