sport specific injuries
are injuries that are common in certain sports. as a coach knowing the most common injuries may enable you to prevent them, where possible be prepared with first aid.
gross and fine motor skills
gross motor skils relate to movements and coordination of large muscle groups e.g kicking a footy and fine motor skills relate to movements and coordination of small muscle groups e.g throwing a dart
open and closed motor skills
open motor skills are performed in an environment that is constantly changing and players need to respond by constantly adapting their skills to the changing environment which is externally paced e.g going for a mark. closed motor skills are easier to instruct as are predictable and planned and are internally self paced meaning the participant chooses when to act e.g b-bal free throw
tactical skills
are about trying to develop or improve decision making when playing, they can include strategies, player/game setup, creating zones, development of team plays. for this it is important to consider how you deliver the info because of visual, kinaesthetic and auditory learners.
mental skills
motivation, goal setting, concentration, visualisation and developing comp routines. should be trained and developed in training sessions and competition
game centred approaches
teaching skills through gameplay, allows skills to develop naturally, is very inclusive and engaging and allows good tactic training, but can cause bad skills to develop and is bad for beginners.
technique centred approaches
involves isolating specific skills and developing them rather than focusing on gameplay. skills are broken into steps and presented gradually in succession with aim of successful repetition. allows good skill building but not so good when is coming to gameplay
disciplinarian
used when safety is a concern or activity requires strict procedures
still should be respectful and considerate
