Abstract

To attend the growing demand of improvements required by athletes of high performance, sportive preparation must contemplate psychological competence training. However, several coaches do not know how to apply such competences to achieve success in sport. The aim of this study was to show the procedures required to structure a psychological competence training program in high performance sports. This study has the psychological training performed with the Beach Volleyball Olympic Champions as a basis. The phases to structure the psychological competences training are presented (educational, diagnostic, acquisition, practice and evaluation phases) and the procedures to insert these competences (concentration, imagery, self-confidence, motivation, activation, stress, anxiety and self-report) in the training and competition routines. It is expected that this work may help professionals involved in high performance training to include psychological preparation in their training programs to improve performance.
