Losing interest in the game

Training

Hi guys,

I feel that I'm not so good as 2 weeks ago. I almost lost interest in the practice sessions. I feel that I can't play my strokes consistently and in the games-I didn't want to play any more. On the next Friday, I will have an important match. I have to be in a good form. What should I do to recover my form? I tried to stop playing it for a few time but it didn't work. I have a bit more lessons in school and maybe that is the problem, but I don't know. Pleas help.

Hi Nasko,

You don't lose ability in a couple of weeks.  What you can lose is confidence in your ability.

If you are feeling undecided about playing the best thing is to examine your goals.  You have a match coming up so focus on this and think about improving your game for the match.  Think about who you will be playing and the tactics that you will need to use.  You can focus on training these things.

Interest will depend on priorities and your focus.
