Purchase options and add-ons

For the last 25 years, a constraints-based framework has helped to inform the way that many sport scientists seek to understand performance, learning design and the development of expertise and talent in sport. The Constraints-Led Approach: Principles for Sports Coaching and Practice Design provides students and practitioners with the theoretical knowledge required to implement constraints-led approaches in their work.

Seeking to bridge the divide between theory and practice, the book sets out an ‘environment design framework’, including practical tools and guidance for the application of the framework in coaching and skill acquisition settings. It includes chapters on constraints-led approaches in golf, athletics and hockey, and provides applied reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of motor learning, skill acquisition and developing sport expertise.

Providing a thorough grounding in the theory behind constraints-led approaches to skill acquisition, and a foundational cornerstone in the Routledge Studies in Constraints-Based Methodologies in Sport series, this is a vital pedagogical resource for students and practising sports coaches, physical education teachers and sport scientists alike.

    This book provides the science behind great practice design and skill acquisition, and then gives the reader practical advice on how to create great sessions in the real world. It should be on every coaches bookshelf.

    I have been coaching football (soccer) using small sided games for well over 10 of my 20 plus years coaching. This book has really revised my thinking. I feel I’ll be a better coach for reading it.

    The guided discovery approach from sports pedagogy (Mosston 1980) is explained on the basis of the Contextual Interference Approach (Battig 1966) with the terminology of systems dynamics (Kelso 1995). Mainly, the normally used interventions are structured according to a suggestion of (Newell 1986). In terms of Kuhns (1968) criteria for good science the broader scope and fruitfulness is missing.
