How does the emotional factors impact your performance
Decision making, confidence, anxiety
Decision making (impacting performance)
Make wrong decisions ( explain) make rash decisions (explain)
Confidence (impacting performance)
Head goes down, lack of self belief, opt out- don’t go for tackles, ask for back etc, won’t take risks
Anxiety ( impacts performance)
Discourage for fear of making mistakes, skill lever will drop cos your nervous, can’t handle pressure situation EG. a penalty to win the game.

What are principles of play (explain each)
Width- play across the area/pitch, depth-play over the length of the area/pitch, mobility- being able to slow down, delay- slowing things down
What is a standardised test
Standardised tests are used to measure aspects of fitness
Give examples of stabdarused fitness tests and what aspect of fitness they target
Cooper run- CRE (cardio respiratory endurance), seargant jump-power, Illinois agility test-agility, 50m sprint- speed
What are benefits of standardised tests
Numerical data- easy to understand, set realistic targets,permanent record- can look at a later date and compare, specific information on particular aspect of fitness that impacts performance, gives starting point with training, highlights strength and weaknesses.
Limitations of standardised tests
Time out training, doesn’t relate to specific activity, requires motivation- if unmotivated result will be innacurate
How do you prepare for an activity (warm up)
Heart raiser, stretching (dynamic), game like practices.
Why is a Heart raiser important
To gradually increase heart rate, to increase blood flow to muscles, to raise body temperature, muscles will react more quickly when warm and will stretch more easily
Why is stretching (dynamic) important
To increase the range of movement around the joints,to reduce the chances of injury, to increase ease of movements
Why is game like practices important
To help body prepare for work to come, to groove/refine the skills, to focus on the skills of the activity,improves your preformance in the activity
What is a cool down
A cool down is when you do all light jog/ walk to allow the body to gradually return to its resting state once the activity is finished.
Why is a cooldown important
It allows the heart rate to gradually return to normal, allows muscles to keep pumping blood to the heart, prevents dizziness as activity isn’t stopped abruptly, helps to reduce stiffness in muscles,takes away waste produced by activity e.g. lactic acid
How to cool down
Gradually slowing down the activity, gradually reduce how hard you are working in the activity,at the end of the activity do a light jog/walk, do some gentle static stretching and relaxing of body parts
What are the principles of training
Duration,frequency,overload,intensity,specificity,reversibility
Explain duration
How long you train for
Frequency
How often you train
Intensity
How hard you work
