Physical factors
Consistency
It is important that performance is consistent when trying to develop some tactical strategies. A lot of tactical approaches such as opposed practiceA practice which involves working through a series of different plays with opposition for added difficulty. It is used when learning a new tactic or strategy in sport. and unopposed practiceA practice which involves working through a series of different plays without opposition or pressure. It is used when learning a new tactic or strategy in sport. include a lot of skilled performance, as you try to reach the short-term goal of the session. If your skilled performance is inconsistent within your tactical role, the practice can break down and players can become frustrated.
Question
Using the three step process, consider how a lack of consistency in your chest pass can impact your development in an unopposed practice.
An example answer might be:
A lack of consistency in your chest pass can negatively impact your team's performance when trying to learn the fast break during an unopposed practice.
This means if your outlet pass does not always find your teammate, the whole strategy can break down before it even starts.
This results in your team not fully developing the fast break and not reaching the short-term goal of the session.
Creativity
Demonstrating creativity can be very helpful when your group is trying to develop a new choreography. Being creative will help you try out different choreographic devices such as mirroringA choreographic device which involves two partners facing each other and performing the same moves. and cannoningA choreographic device which involves people performing the same move one after the other.. Whilst some of these devices may work, others may not and that is part of the learning process.
Identifying the devices that work, as a consequence of being creative, will allow your group to develop a better routine.
Question
Using the three step process, consider how being creative can impact you when trying to develop a new choreography.
An example answer might be:
Being creative can really help your group when trying to develop a new choreography.
This means you will offer innovative and different ideas about what choreographic devices and movements your group should use.
This can result in your group identifying what works best for them and developing a better routine.
Muscular endurance
High levels of muscular endurance are required in numerous approaches that develop skilled performance.
In repetition drillRepeating an aspect of performance (e.g. a serve in badminton) over and over again., the repetitive nature of performing can put strain on the muscles being used. If your muscular enduranceThe ability of a muscle or group of muscles to sustain repeated movements against resistance. is high, you are more likely to be successful here.
Question
Using the three step process, consider how high levels of muscular endurance could impact you when developing your smash in repetition drills.
An example answer might be:
High levels of muscular endurance can be really helpful when developing your smash in repetition drills.
This means that as you approach the final set of your practice, the muscles in your shoulders and arms will still feel fresh.
This results in you continuing to perform the sub-routines to the desired standard that would allow you to improve.
