WHAT MAKES A MENTALLY TOUGH TEAM?

Written By Shelley Izuno

It’s not just individual toughness that counts—it’s how the team responds together.

Mentally tough teams:

  • Support each other during adversity

  • Keep energy high under pressure

  • Hold each other accountable to the standard

Coaches can build this by:

  • Modeling emotional control

  • Creating a no-blame culture

  • Reinforcing team-first behavior

Team resilience is contagious. Build it through shared adversity and strong leadership.
