Practice Methodology Practice Methodology STEP 4 STEP 4 Tactical Teaching Tactical Teaching *Teaching Point = current research has shown that players need 24 quality rehearsals before they develop successful motor learning patterns (practice fast) *LESSON = *LESSON = everything you do must develop decision making (players & staff) 3 R s NOT WHAT YOU DO, HOW YOU DO IT Tactical Skills (defined) problem solving skills that are based on three elements (tactical triangle) Tactical Triangle: From a tactical perspective, think of a sport contest as a series of problems to be solved by you (the coach HC + assistants) and the players these 3 elements are involved: 1. Reading the play or situation 2. Acquiring the knowledge needed to make an appropriate tactical decision 3. Applying one s decision-making skills to the problem So, the key is to first identify the most important tactical decisions-skills needed to be successful. Next, make sure to create both for the coaches and the players as many practice opportunities (reps) involving these core tactical skills to accelerate their development decision skills.
