Senne reflects, “Growing up, I faced numerous challenges because, as a young goalkeeper, the journey wasn’t always easy. I wasn’t necessarily the standout performer in my age group and often made mistakes. Overcoming those errors as a young keeper can be tough, but perseverance is key.”
“Confidence plays a significant role too. It’s about putting in the work during training every day and trusting yourself to perform during matches. The preparation should be consistent for each game.”
“By maintaining a familiar routine leading up to a match, I feel more at ease, even though each game itself presents unique challenges. Adopting this mindset has been crucial.”
“I engaged in some psychological work while growing up, but now I rely on my own strategies. I enjoy journaling, especially noting my thoughts after each match. It helps clear my mind, allowing me to let go of overthinking after a game. Writing it down frees me from the mental clutter.”
