EXECUTIVE SUMMARY / SYNOPSIS
This research task requires that, through participation in skill learning and game play during the volleyball unit we have been required to observe and analyse the characteristics of skilled performers; receive feedback on weaknesses in technique and develop and participate in training activities that could correct these weaknesses.
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Give the reader a general overview of what is in the report.
Through participation in skill learning and game play during the volleyball unit, this report will observe and analyse the characteristics of skilled performer through feedback in technique that was given by my fellow class mates and the coach and develop and participate in training activities that could correct these weaknesses.
1.2 Background, aims and limitations.
LEARNING PHYSICAL SKILLS
1.3 A motor skill is a taught structure of movement that trust together to produce a smooth, efficient action in order to develop on a particular task. The development of a motor skill happens in the motor cortex, the area of the cerebral cortex that controls voluntary muscle groups.
A sub program also known as subroutine is a set of instructions set by a coach or individual that is designed to perform a regularly used operation within a program.

...some drills that can be taught during practice, to improve an individual’s volleyball skills. Keeping in mind that the individuals participating in volleyball have the skill to perform new skills but only dependent on the ability of presentation. By performing the drill in a group then breaking it up into the key components (serve, dig, set and spike) the player will be able to have specific points to remember and not be overloaded with knowledge all at once. While the key points are highlighted to the players have them emulate an individual demonstrating a skill and assess each player individually with personal instruction.

Every coach is different with their methods, but they do have similar things they love about coaching. According to Brainy Quote, Vince Lombardi once said, “It’s not whether you get knocked down; it’s whether you get up.” That quote shows what Mather loves to see when coaching volleyball. His favorite part of coaching is watching people fight hard to reach their goals. Athletes who love their sport should be committed, and work hard at it. Having good sportsmanship for the
Educational sport psychology focuses on improving elite athletic performance through psychological skills training. Improving cognitive behavior and development by increasing cognitive awareness and addressing and correcting negative cognitive behaviors through and assortment of training methods, psychological skills training (PST) is best defined. The compass of psychology skills training includes the development of five basic psychological skills: arousal recognition, goal setting, imagery, attention control and self-talk. Sport psychologists have determined th...
A proper coaching philosophy contains principles which improve character development, teach step by step tactical and technical skills, form proper progressive physical training regimens, and carefully utilize team management to handle and control problems with administrative issues. A coach with a sound philosophy should mold a team with strong cohesion, and he should treat players not only as teammates, but as family and friends who are encouraged to develop communication and lifelong learning of skills through positive support and role modeling from the coach (Mergelsberg, 14-15). The philosophy should also contain written documents of implemented strategies and techniques, so that the coach will know what to improve upon season by season
The tactical games model is an instructional method for a physical education class, the outline for a tactical game unit is set up as follows. The first step in any Tactical games model is to choose a sport for the class to play, team sports such as basketball or soccer typically work best for this model because they present the players with more tactical situations. Rather than full sized games your class will benefit more from smaller groups and faster paced games, any tactical issues a student is having during the sport will become more apparent this way and therefore easier to address (Pill). Additional adaptations can be made to manipulate the sport to your classes needs such as dimensions of the field, player’s movements, and the games rules (Pill).The Focus of game one is to put your students into challenging situations, by being challenged in the first game the students see areas they are lacking tactical experience. As the teacher your objective during game one is to iden...
From the moment I was born I was destined to become a softball player. My dad is from the Dominican Republic. In his country baseball is the national sport. People expect Dominicans to play baseball. Therefore, it didn’t come to a surprise when my dad began to influence me to play softball at a young age. My dad played a significant role in developing my interest in softball which allowed me to become skillful in catching and throwing. From the moment I was born I began my journey to becoming skillful at this. Skills I acquired at a young age would later encourage the development of my proficiency in catching and throwing. Throughout this paper I will tell the story of how I progressed to each period on the “Mountain of Motor Development.” This “mountain” is a metaphor of the sequence I followed that helped me build up my skills. There are 6 Periods in the mountain: the Reflexive Period, Preadapted Period, Fundamental
She passes, she sets, she hits. Kill! Volleyball is a very interesting sport and is the second most popular sport in the whole world falling behind soccer. The way volleyball was created, how it has changed over time, and the rules of volleyball give it a really cool and interesting history.
Volleyball is one of the biggest team sports there are. It is big in the summer olympics and all around the world men and women play it every day. The game of volleyball was originally called “mintonette”, it was invented by William G. Morgan in 1895 at Springfield College in Massachusetts, they made it along with basketball. In 1957 volleyball was officially an Olympic sport, the first games were held in Tokyo 1964 and the first beach volleyball games were in 1996 Atlanta. In London 2012, USA got 12 silver medals. In the Olympics, the Soviet Union has won the most medals. The best country right now is Brazil, winning gold medals in London 2012. One of the best volleyball players from Minnesota right now is Tori Dixon who played for the Gophers

What makes champions in sport? At the end of the day, it is the moment when one stands at the top of the podium, holding up their well-deserved medals and trophies that all elite athletes strive for. Thus, experts have studied this question extensively to see which programs, or by what means, are elite athletes developed to achieve this goal. One of the many aspects to athlete development is the controversial topic of deliberate practice versus deliberate play. Deliberate practice can be defined as “any training activity (a) undertaken with the specific purpose of increasing performance, (b) requiring cognitive and/or physical effort, and (c) relevant to promoting positive skill development” (Cote et al., 2007, p. 185) On the other hand, deliberate play is defined as “a form of sporting activity that involves early developmental physical activities that are intrinsically motivating, provide immediate gratification, and are specifically designed to maximize enjoyment” (Cote et al., 2007, p. 185-186). The phrase “deliberate practice versus deliberate play” is a common misnomer, since the terms are portrayed as the only two options; however, this is a false dichotomy. Empirical evidence supports the fact that both aspects are essential for the development of athletes; therefore the phrase should be correctly cited as “deliberate practice and deliberate play”. This commentary will focus on discussing the importance of both deliberate practice and deliberate play for elite athlete development as well as pose some questions on talent identification and early specialization in sport.
The last topic but one of the most important effects of practicing is how much it can a effect the players ability to play with his team and be a team player. The player who practices with his
The topic of positive discipline is one of great importance especially so in the world of athletics. Often time the term discipline is misconstrued by parents, player and unfortunately some coaches. Parents may associate the term as their player being subject to harsh treatment; while athletes my see it as restrictive and punishing, sadly to say some coaches validate both the parents and the athletes view of discipline. Many older or seasoned coaches hold to the concept that discipline simply apply to the performance of all play properly, the athlete focusing solely on the sport they are participating and striving to win every game. Failure to live up to the coaches expectations could result in extreme practices or the like and be falsely labeled as discipline. However, athletes receive positive discipline it spans well beyond the practice or playing field. Positive discipline affects an athlete’s entire life sometimes for their entire life. Undisciplined athletes have the potential to reflect negatively on the entire organization and can be like an infectious disease that spreads rapidly to the whole team. The term “One bad apple will the spoil the bunch” holds especially true in team athletics. In athletics players spend a large amount of their time with fellow teammates making it easy to pick up one another’s habits both good and bad. Coaches and player of sports such as; Baseball, Basketball and Football spend anywhere from two to three hours a day, three to five times a week with one another. Quite naturally do to the many hour’s coaches and players spend together players learn some of their behavior from the coach. Often times coaches have more face time with players than parents; therefore, making positive discipline vit...
As I walked onto the volleyball court, I noticed people were screaming and cheering all around me. They were all around me, and yet they all sounded strangely distant. I was nervous. I was worried that we might lose, but worst of all, I was worried that I might end up letting my teammates down. Negative thoughts continued filled my head and I drew closer and closer to my position. Once again, I found myself asking whether or not I truly belonged on this team. Now, this certainly was not the first time I questioned my place on the team, but little did I know that it would be the last.
Although technically beach volleyball isn’t the most dominant sport throughout the world, it is a sport available for all ages, it has progressively grown throughout the years, and has many different theories of its past. Several rules, people, and questions, have led to the discovery of more facts about beach volleyball from previous years. Uncovering each part of the history of beach volleyball shows more and more reasons why it is a tremendous sport to learn and research about.
It seems strange that a simple sport can do so much to a person, but it is not just a simple sport. To an outsider it is just volleyball, but to a player it is love, commitment, and family. It is a way to connect with people who become people in your life that are unforgettable. I have spent the past five years playing this sport with many different girls and I watched them as they grew up and went on to college and other things in life, and now I am that girl. I am now a senior in high school playing volleyball for the last year and I could not imagine what my life would be like if I had never tried this
People in both ancient and modern societies have enjoyed playing sports in the spare time. The different shapes of athletic equipment, uniforms, and balls such as basketball, baseball, football, and soccer ball are designed differently to serve the purpose of their sports Also, each sport has been developed in various ways.
