Handbook of Sports Performance Analysis - Claudia Dalton - Bog

Sports performance analysis involves observing and recording events and actions during competitions and training environments. Its purpose is to assess and monitor the sporting performance using real-time and lapsed-time coding systems. There are three major notational coding methods used within this field, namely, time-motion, tactical and technical. These are considered with reference to analyses during match-play and training activities. Effective video capturing across a variety of sports and the relevant use of such videos in the process of coaching are key characteristics of performance analysis. The principal objective of sports performance analysis is to demonstrate a sound knowledge of performance analysis principles in sports. An ability to conduct performance analysis research and an understanding of the relevant feedback are other goals of this analysis. As this field is emerging at a fast pace, this book will help the readers to better understand the concepts of sports performance analysis. For all those who are interested in sports science, it can prove to be an essential guide.
