117 How to Help Footballers Who Have Been Released – Part Two

This week's solo episode is part two where I build on last week's episode and share 4 more ideas and further resources to help footballers who come across the challenge of being released from football clubs.  It's a naturally difficult time for the player and their family where their motivation and mental health can be tested.  My ideas relate to how a mentally tough player would likely view the situation and how you can develop your mental toughness and bounce back positively from the setback.   Key Learning Points See yourself as a worthwhile person.
