This is a real long shot... I need a book recommendation about sports psychology

[Anne in CA]

About five years ago there was a great thread about sports psychology books. I read several of them but one was really, really good, and I can't remember the name of it to save my life now. 

 

Could I get recommendations and see if I either recognize the name, or find one that is as good?

 

TIA!

Little Girls in Pretty Boxes? Something like that?

That was not it, but thanks for trying!

I liked "Less Than a Minute to Go"

 

and there was another book I can't remember the title of by a former Michigan State U football coach.

Doc Ali is a sports psychologist, and I think she has some books out.  Here's her website.

Not sure what sport, but Rebecca has Your Best Meet Ever and Sports Psychology Library: Gymnastics. I also got her a talk from Doc Ali.

If you are the parent of the athlete or any other child involved in what the author calls an "achievement activity," I can recommend Positive Pushing.

DD did several of the online sessions with Doc Ali.  She loved it and thought Doc Ali was really, really nice.
