Overview:

Already a classic in the field of sports and physical education, Teaching Sport Concepts and Skills: A Tactical Approach, Second Edition, has greatly expanded to make it an even more valuable resource. The tactical games approach is a proven method used in teaching students and athletes sport-specific skills through modified game play in which they must execute tactics in game-like settings. This book explains how to apply this approach and provides 245 ready-to-use lessons to help you do it.

These lessons include tactical questions to help you elicit students' responses that identify the need for skill practice. The lessons also guide you in adapting them to your students' needs, either simplifying or increasing the challenge of the tasks involved. The lessons feature more than 200 clear diagrams that make setup and execution of the games easy.
