Mindset

The New Psychology of Success
by Carol Dweck

Anyone can improve at anything.  Success can be dramatically influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities.  This book, famous for the creation of the terms fixed and growth mindset, reveals how great coaches, parents, and athletes recognize their mindsets and grow as humans.

Raising Empowered Athletes

A Youth Sports Parenting Guide for Raising Resilient Kids
by Kirsten Jones

Youth sports has gotten crazy.  The elite-or-bust mentality has run rampant in an over-professionalized and hyper-competitive industry.  This book explores how to not only raise strong athletes, but also nurture great human beings who are empowered to succeed on and off the field.

Clear Coaching

Harness Clarity to Drive Development
by Todd Beane

Coaching is teaching.  In order to develop athletes into their full potential, coaches need a plan and need to express it clearly, not only to players, but also to families.  This short book provides a great place to start for any coach and is the blueprint for the path on which Anglers leads all its coaches.
