The Pressure Principle by Dave Alred Mbe

'A hush descends. All eyes are on you. One shot for glory. Your palms are clammy, your heart rate's up. But you've got this. You will throw the paper ball into the bin first time...'

Dealing with pressure is a skill just like any other. Even sports stars rely on tried-and-tested strategies when the stakes are high. For many, their success is down to one man: Dr Dave Alred MBE, widely acknowledged as one of the best coaches on the planet.
