In today’s digital age, the average child will have spent approximately 18,000 hours on their phone by the age of 16. This staggering amount of screen time is not without consequence, leading to significant gaps in psychological development crucial for their growth. Research indicates that when daily phone use exceeds 4 hours, it begins to detrimentally affect a young athlete’s development, manifesting in symptoms that hinder their potential both in sports and life. These symptoms include increased moodiness, a lack of focus, higher susceptibility to injuries, a noticeable decrease in self-confidence, and an overwhelming fear of failure. Such developments not only impact their immediate performance and wellbeing but also set the stage for long-term challenges in achieving their full potential. The Mental Game Academy recognizes this critical issue and is committed to addressing it through targeted cognitive behavioral sports training, designed to reverse these trends and foster a healthy, balanced relationship with technology.
