Playing in a final can bring a different kind of pressure than what most players are used to.
The nerves can feel sharper, every decision feels bigger, and that little voice of doubt can creep in.
The players who thrive in finals aren’t the ones who feel no pressure, they’re the ones who know how to use it.
And that’s exactly what Germany did in the 2024 Auckland Masters World Cup final.
Down by two goals with just minutes to go, they could have crumbled under the pressure, but instead, they found another gear. They kept believing, stayed disciplined and pushed right until the final whistle.
What happened next is proof that momentum can shift in an instant and that if you refuse to quit, anything is possible. Let’s break it down…
"Never stop believing, no matter the score"
I've put together a NEW In-Depth Resource for Masters Hockey Players (made up of 10 short modules), where I dive deep into "The 7 Performance Multipliers that separated GOOD players from GREAT players during the 2024 Masters World Cups" where I took part both as a player (where we won Gold in Cape Town) and also as a coach (where we won Bronze in Auckland).
In this training I'll show you real life practical examples from the Masters World Cups and how to apply them to help you stand out and perform at your absolute peak. These insights are game changing for masters hockey players striving to perform their best in national and international tournaments.
