BTEC Sport Level 2 Learning Aim A:Know about the components of fitnessand the principles of training.Topic A.2: Components of Skill-Related Fitness Unit 1: Fitness for Sport and Exercise
Connector: Spot the FIVE Components of SKILL-RELATED Fitness (A2):
Learning Objectives: • All:Will know the 5 components of skill related fitness. • Most: Will be able to apply each component of skill related fitness to specific sports. • Some:Will understand why each component is required to be successful in given sports.
Input: Match the skill related components to their correct description
Skill Related Components of Fitness Discussion: What is the difference between a Skill-Related Component of Fitness and a Physical Component of Fitness? The components of Skill-Related Fitness are (Davis 2000): • Agility • Balance • Co-ordination • Power • Reaction Time
Agility • DEFINE IT:(Describe) The ability of a sports performer to quickly and precisely move or change direction withoutlosing balanceor time. • Key Words: • Precisely= exactly, correct execution • Balance= to stay in a steady position
Examples of Agility in Sport • Why is it important in Rugby to be able to change direction at speed, maintaining your balance? • Why do Badminton players need good agility? • What would happen to performance if these athletes did not have good agility?…..WHY?
Watch the following video and write down your example in your books: • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AEbdD4q8Xs • [longer video – you don’t have to show all of it] • Bronze:In your example, name a sport that requires good agility. • Silver:In your example, explain why this sport requires good agility. • Gold: In your example, explain your thoughts using the correct terminology.
Balance • DEFINE IT:(Describe) The ability to maintain centre of mass over a base of support. • Types of Balance: Static Balance = When there is little/no movement and the position is fixed. Dynamic Balance = When there is momentum and the position is held during movement.
Watch the following video and write down your example in your books: • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJg40eI1WZI • [short video] • Bronze:In your example, name a sport that requires good balance. • Silver:In your example, explain why this sport requires good balance. • Gold: In your example, explain your thoughts using the correct terminology.
Co-ordination • DEFINE IT:(Describe) The smooth flow of movement needed to perform a motor task efficiently and accurately. • Key Words: • Motor Task= A learned sequence of movements • Efficiently= Effectively, smoothly, quickly – working in the best possible way
Examples of Co-ordination in Sport • Why is it important in Swimming to have good co-ordination? What needs to be co-ordinated? • Laura Robson needs co-ordination in Tennis, what parts of the body? • What would happen to performance if these athletes did not have good co-ordination? …..WHY?
Watch the following video and write down your example in your books: • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VUePwc-A4g • [short video] • Bronze:In your example, name a sport that requires good co-ordination. • Silver:In your example, explain why this sport requires co-ordination. • Gold: In your example, explain your thoughts using the correct terminology.
Power • DEFINE IT:(Describe) The product of strength and speed. Expressed as the time it takes to perform a task. • Key Words: • Strength = Amount of force that can be exerted. • Speed= How long it takes to move. • This component is VERY similar to EXPLOSIVE STRENGTH.
Examples of Power in Sport • In golf, why does Tiger Woods need power? • As well as muscular strength, boxers need power? Why? • What would happen to performance if these athletes did not have good power? …..WHY?
Watch the following video and write down your example in your books: • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wJh76N558A • [start the video at 3.30 minutes] • Bronze:In your example, name a sport that requires good power. • Silver:In your example, explain why this sport requires power. • Gold: In your example, explain your thoughts using the correct terminology.
Reaction Time • DEFINE IT:(Describe) The time taken for a sports performer to respond to a stimulusand the initiation of their response. • Key Words: • Stimulus = An object or an event. • Response= A reaction.
Examples of Reaction Time in Sport • In fencing, you have to strike your opponent with a fencing sword. Why do you need good reaction time? • What stimulus do sprinters respond to? • What would happen to performance if these athletes did not have good reaction time? …..WHY?
Watch the following video and write down your example in your books: • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhNReLqqkiE • [slow-motion starts around 1 minute] • Bronze:In your example, name a sport that requires good reaction time. • Silver:In your example, explain why this sport requires reaction time. • Gold: In your example, explain your thoughts using the correct terminology.
A3: Why fitness components are important for successful participation. • Research Task and Home Learning • Pick a sport or event of your choice. (Just ONE sport/event). • Describe (pass), explain (merit) and analyse (distinction): The 3 main PHYSICAL components of fitness AND the 2 main SKILL-RELATED components of fitness needed to be successful at that sport/event. • Use examples from your chosen sport/event to support your work.
