What is Magill definition of motor Learning?
A change in the capacity of a person to preform a skill as a result of practice or experience that must be inferred from a relatively permanent improvement in performance.
How does Amezdroz define motor learning?
Is the process and study of how we learn or acquire skills. An important characteristic of motor learning is that it occurs as a direct result of practice and experience. Something that happens naturally is a motor development
What is a motor skill?
An activity that requires voluntary muscular movement to achieve a goal or task. Classified as learnt, controlled or analysed.
E.G:
Gross - Fine continuum
Determines size and number of muscles used to preform skill

- Fine:
E.G:
Closed - Open continuum
Determines the relative consistency or stability the skill is preformed in.

- Open:
E.G:
Discrete - Continuous continuum
Determines whether or not the movement has a specific beginning and ending

Principles of Play
Specific aspects of the game in which you must succeed to beat the opposition.
- Setting up attack
- Defending against attack
- Creating, defending and attacking space
- Attacking goal line - scoring points
Characteristics of Motor learning
- Improvement - performance shows improvement of time
- Consistency - performance becomes more consistent
- Stability - Performer becomes less effected by external and internal conditions
- Persistence - Performer can perform and focus for longer
- Adaptability - Performer can adapt to a variety of performance contexts
Performance
the act of executing a motor skill at a specific time in a specific situation
Learning
A relatively permanent change in a persons ability to execute a motor skills
Linear Learning
Non-linear learning
