Flush It: The Mental Toughness Workbook for Field Hockey Players: A Sports Mindset Journal with Exercises to Help Young Athletes Reset Fast, Build Confidence, & Perform Under Pressure
Your athlete doesn’t need to play a perfect game. She needs to learn how to respond when the game doesn’t go perfectly.
Because for many field hockey players, the mistake isn’t the biggest problem. It’s what happens next.
They replay it. Get frustrated. Lose confidence. Start overthinking. One mistake turns into another—and suddenly they’re playing tight, hesitant, and afraid to mess up again. FLUSH IT was created to help field hockey players break that cycle.

THE BEST ATHLETES AREN’T PERFECT. THEY BOUNCE BACK FASTER.A missed tackle. A bad pass. A turnover. A rough first quarter.
Those moments are inevitable.
What separates resilient athletes is their ability to process what happened, let it go, learn from it, and attack what’s next.
FLUSH IT gives athletes the mental reps to do exactly that.
Players develop a Bounce Back Routine using a Reset Word, physical signal, and deep breath to recover from mistakes and refocus on the present play.
MORE THAN A JOURNAL—IT’S MENTAL TRAINING.Athletes don’t become mentally tough just by being told to “be confident” or “move on.”
Mental skills have to be practiced just like physical skills.
CREATED BY COACHES WHO UNDERSTAND THE GAME
FLUSH IT is co-authored by Robyn Kenney, Certified Mental Performance Coach, former Division I All-American, Hall of Famer, and U.S. Women’s National Field Hockey Team athlete, and Andrew J. Simpson, mindset coach and author of Don’t Let One Mistake Ruin the Game.
PERFECT FOR THE PLAYER mistakes. Gets frustrated when things go wrong. Plays freely in practice but tightens up in games. Struggles with confidence. Feels pressure to be perfect. Or simply wants to become a more confident, resilient, mentally tough competitor.
Because confidence isn’t something you either have or don’t have.
It’s something you can train.
And mental toughness isn’t about never making mistakes.
It’s about knowing what to do next when you make one.
Mistakes happen. Pressure happens. FLUSH IT. Reset. Refocus. Play free.
