Practice and refine your mental edge together with Niels Feijen! The Swedish Billiard Federation can now offer the course in mental training developed by world class player Neils Feijen to all our members at a really good price. Don’t miss this opportunity to sharpen your mental game with the help of a real pro! Mental strength is one of the most important pieces of the puzzle to become a really good billiard player. Without mental edge you miss the crucial shots in a tournament, you fold under pressure and you lose focus during a long practice session. It is therefore strange that mental training is such a small part of our billiard culture. To have a head for winning is often seen as something that you either have or not, nothing that you could practice at or exercise to get better. Maybe everyone doesn’t have the capacity to win the World Championships, but everyone can get better at handling mental stress. The goal of the Swedish Billiard Federation is to broaden the game, so that it attracts more members over a longer period of time. The fact that we are not a very physical sport appeals to many, but we must get better at promoting the advantages of training one’s logical capability. The intellect, together with coordination and precision, is a very important key to understand the greatness of billiards, and if we can integrate the mental aspect naturally on all levels of training and competition, billiards as a sport will benefit tremendously. Therefore, we are very happy to present a top-class course in mental training, in cooperation with one of the world’s best pool players, Niels Feijen from the Netherlands. The course is NOT pool or billiard specific, as it focuses on general techniques to sharpen your mental edge in competition situations. Others who have signed up for the course already include dart players, soccer players and carom players, as well as elite pool players Fedor Gorst and Margaret Fefilova. Other pool players don’t really need a presentation of Niels, as he has been part of the world elite for over 20 years. Among his merits are 5 European Championships gold medals and 1 World Championships gold medal in straight pool, a World Championships gold medal in 9-ball, two World Pool Masters victories, and many other big titles. Niels is known as one of the toughest players to meet in a match, thanks to his intense presence and focused energy at the table, as well as his nerves of steel. It is not a coincidence that he has been elected Most Valuable Player four times in the Mosconi Cup, a competition whose explosive atmosphere demands an extreme discipline and mental strength to be able to perform under the highest pressure. Niels has now gathered all his experience and competence into a comprehensive course comprised of 33 sessions, where you get to learn all you need to know about mental edge. The course consists of video clips divided into four chapters, and you also get a workbook for exercises and goal setting. You take the course online, in your own tempo, and after completion you will have a 30-minute Skype-session with Niels where you can ask questions and get feedback on your results. You can watch a short promotion video and find more information about the course here: https://terminator-college.com/p/the-mental-edge Niels has also released a free instruction video on how to create a structure and setting goals for your game.
