ATTITUDE- has to do with your mental approach to the game. It has to do with staying positive, believing in yourself, and playing with confidence. You have a much better chance of winning and having fun if you stay focused on your game and staying positive no matter what the situation may be.

Confidence. If you believe in your abilities, then you keep your energy level up and keep doing things decisively. Confidence is often what separates players of equal physical abilities and is a large factor in how well you perform.

Concentration. The ability to stay focused on the game and alert makes you much better prepared to anticipate and to react to the actions that take place during the game. Staying focused on the telltale signs that help you anticipate what shot your opponent will make will help build your confidence and undermine theirs.

Fun. Keep having fun while you play. It makes it much more enjoyable and keeps you motivated and energized. Getting down on yourself just depletes your energy and causes you to lose your focus. So keep a positive attitude and have fun while you are out on the court.
