Fransen also talks about Acquiring skills, skills Emerging and Developing skills.
For instance, Infants learning to sit up, reach, manipulate toys, etc walk, talk, run, and move on to more complex movements that they might need to play sports, or whatever else, cook, play musical instruments, riding a bike, etc etc.
(sinead learned to talk before she could walk, because we moved house around the time she was due to start trying to walk, so the change of environment put her off a bit.)
What is a skill – the performance of an action under some pressure
He used a model that describes the stages of skill acquisition
1 performance without awareness
2 conscious competence
3 unconscious competence
Ive seen a slightly different version on a European Coaching course, but it is basically as it says, you try something, with no real guidance, you become aware of a method of how to perform a skill, by coaching and feedback, and then you get to a level where you can perform that skill without really being conscious of either your method, or the steps, or multiple movements that go together to perform that skill.
What I took from all of this was that it is important to create an environment for real skills to be used in a game as much as possible.
Fransen also mentioned that repetition of a skill in a drill goes against the ‘sequencing’ that we actually see in a real game. Attack and defence, a sequence of different plays, rather than a repetition of the same skill repeatedly.
Where the performance of the skill happens at a similar rate to what it would in a real game, because you attack and defend.
It isnt as aerobically challenging, so repetition of skill isnt linked to fitness levels, and it fulfils the sequencing criteria that Fransen spoke about
its a small sided game, so high levels of involvement.
because it mimics the spacial pressure, without the risk of injury
