Human

Two very good articles about nonlinear pedagogy in skill acquisation and about constraints led coaching. As almost coming from soccer!

Mark Upton comes to a likable conclusion:

„The above is not a recipe or blueprint for success, nor is it a comprehensive disscussion of each principle (such as the inevitable “exception to the rule” situations). However, as a starting point they should prove helpful in navigating the complexity of learning design and player development. A useful activity may be to examine your current practice activities against these principles and see how they stack up. What might you do differently?“

Learning needs good sleep

Surely you have players that are impatient in practice and matches. Things should happen immediately. But you are convinced that learning implicitly and differentially is sustainable and more efficient. Of course this requires the confidence of coach and player himself in his self-organization ability“.

By the coach suscribed solutions are often only short-term „false solutions“. Learning processes find place in such practice, but they are not directly stansustainably implemented generally.

This is something from mental coaching and improving your serve in learning and stressful (match-)situations.

From studies about „choking under pressure“ and from Yogi Berra (US baseball coach), we know, that „you can’t think and hit at the same time“. In stressful situations (serving in hard scores in tennis, putting in golf, shooting penalties,…) a lot of athlets start thinking

about failure and about their technique. This uses capacity of the prefrontal cortex and prevents the access to automated and frequently used motions.

The consequence is a slowdown of the motion and can lead to deviations from a successful solution.

In this situation we use so called mental tricks to „trick the mind“ and to avoid conscious thoughts. Am-ster-dam weiterlesen

short-long

Ein Drill zum Einspielen und Warm-Up im Kleinfeld (von T-Linie zu T-Linie). In Partnerarbeit oder in Spielformen.

Spieler*in A und B spielen Ballwechsel von der T-Linie. Nach Kommando des Trainers greifen die Spieler*innen den Schläger „kurz“ (am Schlägerhals) oder „lang“ (am Schlägergriff).

Schläger „lang“, racket „long“
kurz-lang
Schläger „kurz“. racket „short“

Diese Übung greift auf das differenzielle Lernen zurück.

This is a drill for warm-up and starting practice.

Player A and B play rallies from the service-line. After the coaches call they play with a „short“-held racket (or with a „long“-held racket.

You can play with your partner or play points.

The psychological consequences of explicit learning

In our view, for successful competitors it makes a difference, if we work in practice with explicit technical instructions or whether we „develop“ a suitable technique with the player on implicit tasks!

So far we have drawn attention to the benefits of individual and creative problem solving and the sustainability of a player on implicit technology development.

In our view, there is a more significant difference, which speaks for the implicit method. In the explicit teaching methodology the player learns the technique of a stroke from the perspective of the coach (and out of textbooks), which is connected to certain predetermined sequences (backswing, impact movement, movement to the ball, ….). Surely, there are more open and closer interpretations by explicitly working coaches. The psychological consequences of explicit learning weiterlesen

Selbstregulation und exekutive Funktionen im Tennis

Ralf Bartmann, Sportlehrer und Tennistrainer hat in einer Fortbildung des Württembergischen Tennisbunds zum Thema Schultennis über Selbstregulation und das Training Exekutiver Funktionen im Tennistraining referiert. Hier seine schriftliche Zusammenfassung, veröffentlicht in TennisSport2/2015.

Schlüsselerlebnis/Key experience

stanManchmal hat man als Coach ja so seine Schlüsselerlebnisse, die einen dann in der praktizierten Trainingsphilosophie bestärken. Ein solches Erlebnis hatte ich vergangene Woche in einer Trainingsgruppe mit 12-13 jährigen Kindern, die etwa ein Jahr Tennis spielen und die ich für das Wintertraining von einem Kollegen einer anderen Tennisschule übernommen habe.

In einer differenziellen Trainingseinheit zur Verbesserung der Vorhand und des Inside-out-Spiels im Doppel habe ich einem Mädchen, nennen wir sie Fabienne, Bälle aus kurzer Distanz zugeworfen, die sie mit der Vorhand aus der Rückhand-Ecke in das gegenüberliegende Doppelfeld spielen soll (inside-out).
