GROUP WORKSHOP: HOW TO HANDLE THE “DIFFICULT” SITUATIONS IN BOWLING?
There is no easy ride in bowling… throughout a bowling event, “things” happens which has nothing to do with the technic or tactics of bowling…
It can be a consequence of the games but not always… it can be conflicts, anxiety, lack of trust, resilience… it can be within the specific bowler, within the group of bowlers or within the whole team.
The do and don’t s of the coach – a tool box preventing and working with the “difficult” situations…
LOUISE SONNE SCHJELLERUP
My own sports career as a figure skater was the pistol for my passion and interest for the sport psychology and the possibilities in the sport performance lying within this aspect.
I choose a university degree in sport from which I decided to focus on the psychology in a performance enhancing perspective. Halmstad Högskola served me the perfect opportunities and three years later I left Sweden with a European Master degree in sport and exercise psychology.
Since October 2008 I have worked as a fulltime sport psychological consultant at Team Danmark working with individual athletes, national teams and coaches from: ice hockey table tennis, bowling, water-skiing, cycling, figure skating, ice hockey, shooting, handball, tennis, swimming, military battle, dressage - and jump riding, kayak, ballroom dancing, handicap sport (dressage, swimming, track and field, table tennis) etc. In addition to this I have worked as the national sport psychologist at competitions, several Europeans, Worlds and the Paralympics 2012 and doing workshops and educational programs for athletes and coaches across sports.
In 2014 I moved to Sweden continuing my work, focusing particular on the Swedish national teams in bowling – from junior to senior, working with the players, the team and the coaches.
