Basketball Mind is a mental performance app built for hoopers — 30 guided exercises, a 10-domain Mental Skills Assessment, and a personalized training plan that adapts as you grow. Based on the latest research in sport psychology and best practices from elite players. Designed for the court.
The five core pillars · F-010 → F-019
Every exercise in the app ladders up to one of five skill systems — each informed by peer-reviewed sport psychology research. No fluff, no generic meditations, no meditation-app reskin. This is built for the basketball brain.
Multi-sensory PETTLEP-framework visualization for free throws, fast breaks, buzzer-beaters and comeback-from-injury scenarios. See it, hear it, feel it — an extra rep for your mind before you step on the court.
5-second resets for after a missed shot. 5-minute protocols for pre-game. Learn to dial your energy up or down.
Build your cue-word library for instructional ("eyes up") and motivational ("next play") self-talk — the in-game voice that decides the next possession.
Build and practise your own free-throw routine that fits inside the 5-second FIBA rule. The same ritual, every time, under pressure.
Graduated exposure challenges that progressively increase pressure — from bench mentality to 4th-quarter foul trouble composure. Resilience, built rep by rep.
Mental skills assessment
10 domains. 25 questions. Validated sport-psychology items. You walk away with a personalized Mental Skills Profile, a 30-day plan tailored to your role, level and season phase, and a baseline to track growth against. Re-take quarterly.

Who it's for
Helps you practise: calmer free throws, a quick reset after mistakes, a pre-game routine of your own.
Helps you practise: handling pressure, confidence through slumps, mental work during injury rehab.
Helps you practise: short in-season routines and focus between games, in English or Dutch.
Helps you: give players a shared language for mental skills to practise between sessions.
Helps your clients: structured practice between sessions, in English or Dutch. Not a replacement for your work.
