If you’re into skill acquisition in sport, you better have this tremendous book by Alex Sarama & Transforming Basketball! Dr. Tyler Yearby & I were proud to contribute a small piece to it on a topic that deserves more traction across sports: the role of Skill Acquisition Specialists.

Constraints are not merely limiting factors. πŸ€” Constraints are ever present and continuously shaping performance. If a coach can effectively harness them within the practice environment, they may either discourage a player from using a particular movement solution, or nudge them

Great day in Phoenix learning from the LA Dodgers! Thanks so much to Chase Aldridge for facilitating and providing so many great takeaways. I was honoured to finish the afternoon presenting on contemporary skill acquisition ideas to the Dodgers staff.

Was honoured to write a guest chapter on basketball coaching through an ecological lens for a new skill acquisition textbook. Look out for "Ecological Dynamics in Sport Coaching" coming out next year!

β€œCoaches do not need to have an encyclopedic-like knowledge of fundamentals, highly specific techniques and various drills. "Instead a coach can use their knowledge of the game to design representative environments that lead to the emergence of varied movement solutions.”

"The term 'affordance' is far more spesific in understanding why player may have acted in the manner in which they did. The term 'decision-making' has also led to many viewing the game through reductionist lens of 'correct or incorrect' or 'fast or slow'."

I'm amazed at the support we get for our camps. 205 kids this Summer! Since switching to a CLA model demo'd to us by Alex Sarama 3 years ago our camps have exploded in popularity. Even better is the impact on the kids. Do for one what you wish you could do for all. Humbling, πŸ™
