In an exercise of relaxation and visualization our athletes imaged their best performance and then drew from words and phrases from that which best described their state.  Most words and phrases were repeated again and again...

Prepared

Confident

Relaxed

Stoked

Focused and Aware

These words were some of the most used to describe the state our athletes felt when performing at their best.  It was also decided that this state was no accident.

Yeah, sometimes the stars align, but to be at your best when it counts you have to be able to create the state.  To do that takes practice, daily practice... that's why this is called team today.

Simply put: Prepare.
