Focus on the task at hand. We train the brain so that every athlete can focus on the task at hand when needed.

Enough said!

Join us and the team at NDV for a virtual
Training program. Come back stronger after the lockdown.

OBSERVATION, VISION PERCEPTION AND RECOGNITION:

The Speed of the game

During a game, pucks can reach speeds of 100 miles per hour
NHL players can reach speeds in excess of 20 miles (32 km) per hour on the ice. How a hockey player slows this down is as much about their eyes than their strength or speed. A hockey player must anticipate and be prepared to react to a certain action of the puck, the goalie, his teammates and the opposition in a fraction of a second. Read more...

Research has shown that the greatest athletes have great visual skills.

Therefore you need 1- great Motor Skills and 2- Great Visual Skills.....

Studies show that warming up the eyes can increase an athletes success?

These findings lend further support to notion that visual gaze behavior differs according to skill level [18] – specifically in the case of the present study, discrete differences in skill level.
The clustering effect between offensive performance and
frequency of shifts in visual fixation leads to further
considerations of these findings. The first consideration of
the results extends to the purpose of the shift of visual
fixations. If the frequency of this visual behavior has a
positive relationship with sport performance, there are a
number of options to consider that may account for this
phenomenon. Those options involve the optimization of the
visual system for impending action. Therefore, the shifts in
visual fixation may be indicative of dynamic eye exercises
for the purposes of perhaps warming up the extraocular
muscles, in a similar way to skeletal.

As the season grinds to a stop in Ontario (for all sports) you can still train. We will be launching a four week virtual camp very shortly with our partners. Registration will open Easter Sunday (April 4th).

As a coach or athlete how are you training the brain to see faster.

This skill can be trained

Working hard on seeing faster. New 4 week course coming up soon.
