Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author presents a general view on sports training, its eriodization and the role of coordination in the initial stages of preparation in volleyball. He also deals with inter-gender differences in levels of such abilities, describing motor tests for the assessment of coordination potential and providing the reader with standards for the development of talented players. Based on the nature of volleyball, the author analyses key features of sports performance. Coordination abilities, especially in the period of puberty, play an important role in the creation of coordination basis – prerequisites for the development of physical fitness and acquisition of motor skills. Based on the results of his own research, as well as studies conducted by international sports scientists, he offers a model for the development of coordination abilities in volleyball. This method is recommended for coaches to improve their professional work in volleyball classes and schools, and in sports clubs. In the long-term, application of the proposed model should contribute to the improvement of players‘ performance in competition.

Download or read book The Effects of Broken down Focus of Attention Instructions on Volleyball Setting Performance of Skilled and Novice Players written by Danilo Gomes de Arruda and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous studies have shown advantage of external over internal focus of attention (FOA) for motor learning and performance. However, the FOA effect became inconsistent when factors such as task complexity, expertise, individual preference, and performance measurement are considered. For complex motor skills like volleyball setting, broken-down FOA instructions are often given to facilitate skill acquisition and performance, and it remained unknown whether internal and external FOA instructions would impact performance of skilled and novice players differently. Thirty-two novice (n=16) and skilled (n=16) players were asked to perform a targeted volleyball setting task without (control) and with broken-down FOA instructions (internal and external). Both movement outcomes and inter-joint coordination were analyzed. The results supported previous literature on motor expertise showing that skilled players outperformed novice players with superior movement outcomes due to their ability to maintain an intermediate coordination pattern and functional variability of inter-joint coordination prior to the ball contact. The FOA effect on inter-joint coordination was highly idiosyncratic with no congruent pattern could be detected. Although FOA instructions reduced the variability of inter-joint coordination for all players, it was detrimental for skilled players but beneficial for novice players. Future studies should explore the effect of FOAs on motor coordination with a reduced number of attentional cues in both internal and external formats, and the possibility of participants switching between using internal and external cues for motor control.
