Theoretical framework | Ecological dynamics: constraints led approach |
---|---|
Pedagogical concept | Nonlinear pedagogy—e.g. (i) Representative learning design, (ii) repetition without repetition (adaptive movement variability), (iii) manipulation of constraints, and (iv), designing opportunities or affordances for developing relevant information-movement couplings. |
Football concept | Football Interactions (pass, dribble, off-ball movement)—refers to how a player coordinates his/her behaviour within the performance landscape in relation to that environment, on the basis of, not only the immediate physical and informational (i.e., situational) demands but also underpinned by socio-historical and cultural factors. |
Principles of play | In possession: Search, discover, exploit space and gaps using football interactions. Recovering the ball: Close space/gaps, minimise possibilities for opponent’s football interactions, win the ball. |
