This document discusses the role of technology and sports science in enhancing athletic performance and evaluating sporting performance. It defines key terms like biomechanics, motor skills, and performance analysis. It discusses how national agencies support elite athlete preparation and different models for national sports systems. Technologies discussed include motion analysis, video analysis, and their use in refining technique and equipment. National programs that combine elite training and academics are highlighted.
A2 PE Technical Support
- 2. Learning Objectives Understand the role of technology in training analysis. Discuss how technology and sports science can be used for the enhancement and evaluation of sporting performance. Understand and identify how national agencies support the preparation of elite athletes.
- 3. Define the term Biomechanics The study of the forces, and the effects of those forces on and within the human body and other living organisms
- 4. Technology The key role of technology in sport is in the enhancement and evaluation of sporting performance To help the performer to perfect technique through the use of analysis Refining the playing kit and equipment used to give the performer a competitive edge
- 5. How is technology used in your sport to perfect technique? How is it used to refine kit and equipment? Is technology used in any other way in your sport?
- 6. In some sports, technological advances have had such an impact that the rules of the sport have had to be altered and adapted to keep up with these developments. Does this fit in with the concept of fair play? Write down any sports where you know this happens!
- 7. Define the following terms Motor skills Gross Motor Skills Fine Motor Skills
- 8. Define the following terms Motor skills Actions that involve the movement of muscles in your body Gross Motor Skills Larger muscle movements involving the arm, leg or feet muscles or the entire body (eg running and jumping) Fine Motor Skills Smaller muscle actions (e.g. picking things up between thumb and finger)
- 9. Underwater treadmills What are they used for? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpJBXWWt
- 11. Performance Analysis Sports Science informs coaching through the provision of statistical and video analysis. Explain the difference between Performance Analysis and Notational Analysis
- 12. Performance Analysis Biomechanics aids analysis of performance by focussing on the finer details of movement by identifying the link between mechanics and anatomy – individual performance www.dartfish.co.uk www.siliconcoach.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csrb-GCUxzg http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=5OWd8VHIVKQ
- 13. Notational analysis focuses on gross movements or patterns of play within a team – tactics and strategy www.prozonesports.com www.amisco.eu
- 14. Motion Analysis – based around force plate technology, performers are asked to perform a skill This allows coaches to analyse data and advise whether an athlete is efficient in their technique or if they are wasting valuable energy http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=Wc9Wb9JKpTE
- 15. Complete the case study on Pg 173 – Wayne Rooney!
- 16. Sports Science: Three Traditional Areas Sports Science Physiology Psychology Biomechanics
- 17. Sports Science has now become more diverse! Sports Science Physiology Psychology Biomechanics Podiatry Nutritionalist Sports Vision
- 18. Complete worksheets on National Agencies
- 19. The Role of National Agencies An essential aspect of a performers preparation is the provision of high quality coaching, science and medical support services. The former East Germany was the front runner in this type of provision for athletes
- 20. Five Minute task! Why do you think most governments now place such a huge emphasis on increasing provision for elite performers? How do you think this is funded?
- 21. The Centralised Model Elite sport is supported by the state A central body that oversees the management of elite sport’s programmes Funding, support and training comes predominantly from the public sector Can you think of some examples?
- 22. The Decentralised Model No single agency takes control Higher Education Institutions Supported financially through scholarship systems I’ll give you one guess!!!!
- 23. Elite Sports Programmes Target young talented performers - usually aged 14-18 years old Encouraged to attend regular coaching at satellite training centres/academies/centres of excellence Do you know any for your sport? Physical and psychological development Combine elite sports training and academic studies Most Olympic champions are now in their early twenties!

- 25. Case Studies (Page 178 – 179) Read and take notes on the case studies listed below then answer the relevant questions. Case Study 1 – New Elite Case Study 2 – Three National Systems Case study 3 – Australia’s Ace Programme
