when matches progress into 4th and 5th game... i feel my face getting hot and my heart beating faster.. and that's when i do a lot of mistakes!
is it a normal thing that happens to others also? if so.. how do you go back to being cool? ingame... any specific mental exercises? is it fear? |

Remember. Very important. You may tend to rush when in a game. You have ten seconds in between points, use that time to sit still. Think. Strategize. I find it helpful to look over at my friends or whoever I know in the audience. That help calm you down.
Think of what your going to have for dinner that night.

do a mini jog in between points, bounce the ball, take a deep breath in and out, think about a strategy you want to follow and do it and if you focus on it, then you won't be so nervous.

Always appear more confident than you maybe are actually feeling . . . .this usually places doubt in your opponents mind, and will have the desired effect in raising your confidence, and thus the nerves should vanish.
