Welcome To The IMGCA

Read this special message from the IMGCA Founder and President, Bill Cole, MS, MA.

The mission of the International Mental Game Coaching Association is to advance the research, development, professionalism, and growth of the discipline of mental game coaching worldwide.

The IMGCA was the world's first mental game coaching membership organization, created January 1, 2006, and is the only national or international mental game coaching membership organization in the world today.

The IMGCA is comprised of individuals and institutions interested in the mental aspects of sports, movement and health and fitness. IMGCA members come from all walks of life, and have varied backgrounds in sports performance, coaching, teaching and consulting. They are professionals, students, parents, and interested observers of the mental game.
