Skills

  • Develop automaticity with core skills via skill-acquisition training especially those that occur at the point of deciding (eg first touch)
  • Develop strong foundational understanding of core building-blocks of the game-basic interactions like movement, spacing and body shape, primarily through small-sided game-based activities
  • Invest in strong background knowledge so players understand the principles of the game and can understand and learn more while observing
  • Describe shared knowledge (principles of play, game model) in clear vocabulary to allow teammates to coordinate and predict one another's actions Automating and adapting common movements so they become natural via group skill acquisition work may also be helpful
  • Constantly stress perception Situate athletes in settings that develop their ability to see what they will see at the point they must decide while competing as much as possible
