I have talked a lot about motivation, confidence, and focus and desire. All of these are important, but what about luck? Do you ever wonder why athletes wear the same 'lucky shirt' in competition such as Tiger Woods wearing his traditional red shirt on Sunday or athletes who eat the exact same meal for good luck prior to competition? Some teams even go as far as not washing their jerseys until they lose a game.Tue, 28 Oct 2008 19:29:33 +0000http://www.sportgorilla.com/index.php?s=1728&c=2559&sn=%20bowls&cn=%20psychology&view=1817http://www.sportgorilla.com/index.php?s=1728&c=2559&sn=%20bowls&cn=%20psychology&view=1817Many studies have researched athlete's experiences in The Zone. Regardless of their sport they have found many similarities in the words they use to describe their experience. Can we use their findings to give us some idea of how we can open the door a little wider to enter into it?Thu, 23 Oct 2008 12:31:26 +0100http://www.sportgorilla.com/index.php?s=1728&c=2067&sn=%20bowls&cn=%20finding%20the%20zone&view=930http://www.sportgorilla.com/index.php?s=1728&c=2067&sn=%20bowls&cn=%20finding%20the%20zone&view=930Bowls is a sport that is played and followed by millions throughout the world. It is a game of skill and precision rather than physical fitness and has therefore often been associated as a game for the older generation. However, many of the upcoming champions are becoming increasingly younger and the sport has spent recent years making its competitions quicker and more colourful to encourage followers.Thu, 16 Oct 2008 18:30:03 +0100http://www.sportgorilla.com/index.php?s=1728&c=1730&sn=%20Bowls&cn=%20history&view=296http://www.sportgorilla.com/index.php?s=1728&c=1730&sn=%20Bowls&cn=%20history&view=296
