Expertise, task, training, cognition, repetitionAbstract
Preparing players for elite competition requires a commitment to ongoing training and competition, both of which are underpinned by the knowledge a player has of the techniques/tactics necessary for success. The manner in which we teach these skills is crucial in determining the likely outcome when a player is tested under competition conditions. “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” Leonardo Da Vinci.
