Teen Athletes Gain an Edge Over the Competition

Eagle U Partners with Olympic Gold Medalist to Offer a Unique Program

“It doesn’t matter if you win or lose . . . until you lose.” This is the philosophy of Olympic gold medalist, Lanny Bassham, founder of Mental Management® Systems. After winning the silver medal at the Munich Olympic Games in 1972, Lanny went on a pursuit to find out what it would take to win the gold. What he learned was that most competitors don’t train for their mental game. Bassham developed a system of mental training called Mental Management®. Using this system, he dominated his sport of rifle shooting over the next six years, winning 22 world individual and team titles, setting four world records and winning the Olympic gold medal in Montreal in 1976. Lanny Bassham ranks third among all shooting athletes and is a member of the Olympic Hall of Fame.

In every sport, whether team or individual, there is a mental game. One’s success and ability to perform under pressure is exponentially improved by mental performance training. Strength, talent, and innate ability are only one part of the equation for peak performance. To be a champion, you must train like a champion. If you’re not working on your mental game, you’re training for 2nd place.

Lanny Bassham shares his secrets to success and how to have peak performance under pressure with high school and college students at the Eagle U Mental Toughness program in Denton, TX July 21-26, 2008. This is an incredible opportunity for young competitors to learn the Mental Management® System that Lanny Bassham has used to train thousands of professional and Olympic athletes. For more information about this or other Eagle U programs, please call 1-888-732-4538 or visit our website at http://www.eagleu.com.

For over 15 years, Eagle U has helped teens discover themselves and their true potential. From hands-on team exercises to interviewing influential people in the community, students are challenged to rise above mediocrity and discover their unique talents, abilities, passions, and their own initiative. Students leave Eagle U motivated to achieve their highest aspirations and with the self-confidence to open the doors of opportunity.
