Ignite Mindset: Supporting the Player Behind the Performance

Ignite Mindset supports young footballers to develop the mental skills, confidence and emotional resilience needed to perform at their best both on and off the pitch.

 

Led by Jon Stanhope, a Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist, UEFA B Licensed Football Coach and experienced educator, Ignite Mindset combines performance mindset coaching with hypnotherapy to help players manage pressure, build confidence, recover from mistakes, reduce overthinking and develop greater belief in themselves.

 

For young players balancing the demands of football, education, selection, expectations and time away from home, the focus extends beyond performance alone. Ignite Mindset helps players develop the tools to manage challenges, adapt to new environments and look after their wellbeing while continuing to pursue their football ambitions.

 

Better mindset. Greater resilience. Stronger performance, on and off the pitch.
