Five experiments were conducted to examine the role of ball trajectory information in the planning, execution, and evaluation of a complex motor skill as a function of skill. This sensory information source could either be predicted to become either more (Koch et al., 2004) or less (Schmidt, 1975) important as skill is acquired. In Experiments 1,2, and 3 the importance of ball trajectory information in the execution of a soccer kick to a target as a function of skill was examined using visual occlusion (Exp 1 and 2) and perturbation (Exp 3) techniques.

Abstract:
With the rapid development of Computer-based Sport Training (CBST), feedback plays an important role in both coaching and learning. A good CBST system includes not only good training strategies but also effective feedback design. Feedback in the motor skill domain via CBST may be synthetically designed to allow athletes to practice in a more effective way, and enhance their skill acquisition. Little research has been undertaken on the integration of pedagogic theory and instructional design with the design of feedback in CBST. To bridge this gap, this thesis‟s purpose was to explore the design

Abstract:
Training load (TL) monitoring is considered important to understand an athlete’s ability to perform in training and competition along with their risk of any injury and illness. By assessing the physical work an athlete performs in training (i.e., external TL) and/or the athlete’s response to that training (i.e., internal TL), a basic model of an athlete’s response to training can be estimated by the difference between chronic “fitness” (positive) and acute “fatigue” (negative) functions. Subjective measures of TL, which includes sessional ratings of perceived exertion (sRPE), and differential

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of six selected volleyball skill tests to actual volleyball game performance. The six skill test items were administered to 64 subjects, who were all members of a college level introductory volleyball course. Based on the ratings of a panel of experts, subjects were rated during game play as good, average, or poor performers. The stepwise discriminant analysis was used to analyze the relationship between skill tests and game performance. Four of the six skill tests were identified as significantly contributing to group membership. T

Abstract:
Many coaches are becoming aware of the importance of developing mentally tough performers and are designing programs to develop it in their athletes. One of the most significant problems in designing these programs is the inconsistency in the definition and description of mental toughness. If programs are to be designed with the goal of developing mental toughness in athletes, the components of the construct must be identified. Based on the advantages that mental toughness can offer to the performer, this study was designed to develop an understanding of the components of mental toughness in

Abstract:
The quality of the school sport experience is critical if the educational objectives of school sport are to be achieved. This study has identified that there are many variables that affect the outcomes of the school sport experience. None considered more important and integral than that of the person(s) who ‘shapes and steers’ the school sport experience; the School Sport Manager. This case study examined the roles, skills and competencies of School Sport Managers (SSMs) and how the employment of these traits is influenced by the recognition and vocational preparation of SSMs. The research par

Abstract:
Aim:                Parkour is a relatively new action sport, which is not only popular in non-conflict regions but also in regions where armed conflict is taking place. When being featured in the media, youth from conflict regions frequently report that Parkour has helped them to deal with the consequences of armed conflict. Although Parkour is being used in psychosocial and life skills interventions in European countries, and despite the fact that action sports are used in humanitarian assistance, there is no research on the potential of Parkour as a tool in humanitarian interventions.
