I will be in control of my emotions. I will be calm when handling the ball. I will reduce my turnovers. I am not afraid of their press. Their press is easy to break! I can break their press! I will look up and see my options, I have time, I am calm.

I will work hard and fight for every rebound on both the offensive and defensive ends. I will guard her like crazy and I will not let her have an easy shot. I will not let her drive in easily, she will have a tough time. I'm a fast and strong player on defence and offence. Nothing can stop me.

I will be focused and alert. I will not let the crowd affect me. It is just another game, I've played over a hundred basketball games so this isn't a big deal! I've played in front of crowds and everything turned out fine. It doesn't matter, crowd or not, I will play the game I always do, I will play hard defence and work hard and not be lazy. I will DIVE FOR EVERY BALL! I will protect the ball with my body and not be pushed around. I am strong! I am fast! I am hardworking! I never give up! I will fight! I am a force to be reckoned with!
