At NJ CHALLENGE, we proudly integrate the mental performance system developed by Challenge U. Softball®, rooted in the nationally recognized CUDIT® Coach Certification Program (learn more here).

 

These foundational principles - visualization, body language, and self-talk - have transformed athletes across the country, helping them build self-assurance and achieve their goals. Through the groundbreaking CUDIT® VBS System, our athletes receive structured, ongoing mindset training designed to develop confidence, focus, and resilience. 

 

Complementing the VBS System is our Word of the Week (WOTW) program; ten powerful words like GRIT, PROUD, and CERTAIN that athletes internalize through guided training. These words become mental anchors for athletes, helping them face challenges with clarity, purpose, and unwavering belief in themselves.

 

At NJ CHALLENGE, we believe strong minds make strong athletes and that mindset is the ultimate competitive edge.
