ADHD in Sport Strategies for Success

Some athletes with ADHD describe it as their superpower; seeing that the creativity, hyperfocus and speedy decision making amplifies their potential sporting success. Other athletes with ADHD find that narrative infuriating as they try to handle executive dysfunctions, emotional dysregulation and difficulties in focusing alongside the frustrations of trying to thrive in a neurotypically designed sporting environment. This book is written with all these athletes in mind; from juniors starting out in school teams through to elites making their careers in professional sport and adults using sport to stay mentally regulated, maintain social connections and boost confidence.
