 "Donald has helped me to become mentally stronger and more balanced and consistent in my mental preparation, even in high stress situations.He has taught me to avoid negative thoughts and form positive images, taking positive lessons from all situations."
Ben Kilner | Snowboarder Team GB Vancouver Winter Olympics 2010 |
"The redesigned BASI theory module for International standard ski instructors and coaches was a resounding success. Completing the week, Donald gave an inspiring, interactive presentation on mental skills for performers and teachers that was pitched perfectly."

"When I first started my Ski Racing career Ididntrealise just how important SportsPsychology was. I was quite skeptical when I went into my first session. Donald quickly taught me about the athlete I could be. With exceptional skill, he adapted each exercise so I could understand, learn and put them into practice. Without a doubt a major contributor to the success I am seeing today."

“Donald MacNaughton has helped me move on to the next step I was looking for in my racing this year.
Since Donald came on board a couple of months ago to help me, I have been able to zone in, focus on my racing and mentally get where I need to be before getting into the car. This helped me achieve career best podium results at Brands Hatch.”

"I have known Donald MacNaughton for over 20 years as a friend and used his services as a consultant on sports psychology on several occasions. Donald takes Sport Psychology theory and turns it into a usable and effective skillset for football coaches."
Eric Black |
Ex Scotland International Soccer player, 1st team Coach Sunderland AFC English Premiership.
"Working with Donald has given me an amazing lift in working towards finding the exact focus. This has allowed me to perform in competition at the levels I know I reach in training. Since working together I feel I really turned a bad patch of form around to the best results of my career to date and our work together was a major part of that. Learning not to over coach myself is something I now work on, believing in my ability and instincts for skiing has helped a lot in my approach to racing and getting results I know I'm capable of."

"It was a great pleasure to work with Donald. The 7 modules of his program gradually introduced the use of mental skills to our Youth Development teams. The personal touch Donald added to his presentations gave an extra dimension to his program, which made it appealing for the boys to work with it. With the use of digital communication he provided both coaches and players with valuable insights. We are looking forward to working with him again in the near future."
