The same mental and physical system 100+ masters players are using to perform their best throughout national & international tournaments, without burning out, breaking down or letting one bad moment derail your tournament performance
Here it is... plain and simple:
It's not your fitness, it's a preparation gap.
Most masters players arrive at tournaments already carrying fatigue they don't even notice yet.
They've trained hard, done everything right and then step into a 5-10 day tournament with no recovery plan, no mental process and no energy management system for what actually happens inside the competition.
So by Day 4 the wheels quietly fall off.
A bad moment or game bleeds into the next one.
The social buzz of the tournament chips away at the energy reserves.
A niggle that should have been managed becomes something worse.
And by the time the semifinals arrive, you're running on survival instincts instead of performing at your peak.
That's exactly what this workshop fixes.
Because the players who thrive in tournaments don't just train harder, they prepare smarter. Here's how:
✅ Designed specifically for masters hockey players
Every single strategy is designed around the specific physical and mental demands of competing at 35, 45, 55, 65 and beyond, where the body needs more respect and the mental game matters more than ever.
✅ The exact system behind a Gold Medal
This is the exact protocol I've used to prepare for tournaments, including when my team won Gold at the 2024 Masters World Cup in Cape Town and also what I coach masters players in their 40s, 50's and 60's to do too.
✅ What separates the players still performing on Day 6
The tournament isn't won in Game 1, it's won over multiple games. You'll get the exact game-by-game energy management system to make sure you're peaking when it counts most.
✅ Taper the right way so you arrive at 100%
Most masters players arrive overtrained and already carrying fatigue from their final training block. You'll get Lauren's exact pre-tournament taper guidelines so you step onto that first pitch feeling genuinely fresh, not just “okay.”
✅ Recover between games like a professional
You'll get the physical, mental and emotional recovery tools to bounce back fast between games, so Game 4 doesn't feel like you're a completely different player to Game 1.
✅ A mental game plan for multiple games over 5-10 days
Playing 6 games in 5-10 days can create intense pressure. The mental load builds quietly and suddenly you're flat in the biggest game of the tournament. You'll have a clear, simple plan to manage your mental energy across the whole tournament, so you never hit a wall you can't climb back from.
✅ Kill FOMO before it kills your performance
The late nights, social temptations and the whole tournament atmosphere... You'll know exactly how to enjoy the full experience without letting it quietly sabotage what you came there to do.
✅ Move on from bad games in minutes, not days
You'll get Lauren's exact reset process to shake off a poor performance, a bad call or a frustrating moment and walk into the next game mentally clear, reset and ready.
✅ Protect your energy from drama, politics and negativity
Tournaments are often intense social environments. You'll know how to identify the invisible energy drains nobody talks about and how to protect yourself from them without becoming antisocial or isolated from your team.
✅ Lifetime access to the full recording
You'll get lifetime access to the full replay so you can revisit the strategies before every tournament for years to come.
✅ Relevant for every major tournament this season and beyond
Regionals in May. Home Nations or Euros in June. Masters World Cups coming up in July and August. Australian Nationals in September. This system works for any multi-game tournament format and you'll use it every single season.
✅ This is for you if:
• You're preparing for an upcoming tournament in the next few weeks or months (i.e. Masters World Cup, Home Nations, Australian Nationals, or any multi-day club tournament)
• You've done the physical training but you're not confident you'll still be sharp on Day 3-4
• You've faded in the back half of tournaments before and you want a system to prevent it this time
• You want a clear, actionable plan for managing energy, recovering between games and performing under pressure
• You're competitive, experienced and your identity is tied to performing well when it counts
❌ This is NOT for you if:
• You're not preparing for a tournament in the near future
• You're looking for a periodised fitness training plan (this is about mental and recovery systems, not physical conditioning)
• You're happy with your current tournament prep and level of consistency throughout tournaments
They focus exclusively on the physical... fitness, strength programs and conditioning blocks.
And don't get me wrong, the physical matters.
But I've played with (and coached) so many masters players who showed up to tournaments physically ready… and still didn't have much impact in games.
They had the fitness to get through the tournament, but they hesitated in the D under pressure.
They couldn't read the tactical structure fast enough to exploit space.
They lost 50/50 balls because their mental state was in "panic" mode.
Fitness gets you on the pitch, but tactical intelligence and mental clarity win you the game.
That's the gap this workshop fills.
Because the players who thrive in tournaments aren't just the fittest ones.
They're the ones who can read the game faster, make decisions under pressure and manage their mental and physical energy across 5–10 days so they're still sharp when it really counts.
You've put in the time and you've done the physical training over the last few months. Now the question is:
Are you prepared for everything that actually happens INSIDE a tournament?
Because the fitness block only gets you to Day 1.
But what gets you to the final stage of tournaments feeling sharp, healthy and mentally locked in is something most masters players never prepare for.
In this workshop you'll get the complete game-by-game system to manage your energy, recover fast and perform consistently in multiple games over 5-10 days.
This is the exact system Lauren used when her team won Gold at the 2024 Masters World Cup in Cape Town.
And it's also what she coaches all her hockey players to do now.
We're going to cover three steps.
The week before your tournament, don't leave your performance on the training pitch.
You'll get Lauren's exact pre-tournament taper guidelines, the 7-day preparation checklist covering training load, nutrition, sleep, and mindset, and the pre-tournament mental priming routine she uses before every major competition.
By the end of this step, you'll know exactly what to do the night before and the morning of Game 1 to arrive physically ready, mentally sharp, and emotionally calm.
The stuff that happens between the final whistle and the next warm-up that nobody prepares for.
You'll get Lauren's between-games recovery framework covering physical, mental, emotional, and social recovery, the 10-15 minute "Game Reset Protocol" you complete after every game to flush fatigue and mentally close the door on what just happened, and the exact actions to take between games so each new game feels like a fresh start.
You'll also get the FOMO management framework so the late nights and social pressure don't quietly become the reason you're running on empty in the semifinal.
The consistent performance system for the moments that actually decide tournaments.
You'll get Lauren's complete tournament mental plan for managing your psychological state across the entire tournament, the "Quick 10 Sec Reset" process to move on from a bad game or frustrating moment in minutes (not days), and the "Peak When It Counts" method to deliberately build your energy toward the back end so you're ready for the semis and finals.
You'll also learn how to identify and protect yourself from invisible energy drains (drama, politics, negativity, team tension) without isolating yourself, and how to come down from a high-performance game without losing momentum.

Hi, I'm Lauren Penny. For the past 12 years I've worked with over 1000 hockey players helping them perform at the best when the pressure is highest. But it wasn't always like that.
For years I watched and experienced firsthand what happens when talented, well-trained players arrive at tournaments physically prepared but completely unprepared for everything that happens inside the tournament.
Players picking up niggles and injuries by game 4. Carrying a bad performance into the next game. Running on empty in the semis when everything was on the line.
I've been that player and I've also coached those players. That's why I've put together a complete tournament preparation system using what I know as a performance coach, strength & conditioning coach, NLP practitioner and from my own experience of playing in several international tournaments including 2 x Masters World Cups.
This is the same approach I used when our team won Gold at the 2024 Masters World Cup. And it's the same approach the 100+ other masters players that I coach also use.
I created this workshop because masters players don't have the time, energy or body to waste figuring this out the hard way in the middle of a tournament that matters.
