  1. Chapter 18 Sports Skills

  2. Chapter Objectives After completing this chapter, you should be able to 1. Measure sport skills 2. State how sports skills tests may be used in physical education. 3. Describe responsibilities after the measurement of sports skills. 4. Locate and select individual, dual, and team sports skills tests.

  3. Sports Skills Tests Selection of sports skills tests should be based on criteria described in chapter 5. Test items measure only one aspect of sport. May be best to develop localized norms. Tests presented in text are grouped under particular sports; may be placed into four groups.

  4. Grouping of Sports Skills Tests Accuracy-based tests Throwing, serving, striking, or kicking an object toward a target for accuracy Examples – throwing a baseball or football, shooting a basketball, serving a tennis ball, and kicking a soccer ball

  5. Grouping of Sports Skills Tests • Repetitive-performance tests (also called wall volley tests) • Continuous performance of an activity for a specified time period; performer required to stroke, pass, throw, or kick an object at a wall for a specified time period; number of successful trials is measurement • Examples – basketball passes, volleyball volleys, soccer kicks, and racket sports strokes

  6. Grouping of Sports Skills Tests 3. Total body movement tests (also called speed tests) Test performer moves the whole body in a restricted designated area as quickly as possible Examples – basketball and soccer dribbling

  7. Grouping of Sports Skills Tests 4. Distance or power performance Test performer throws, kicks, or strikes an object for maximum displacement or force Examples – baseball or softball throws, golf drives, football punts, and soccer kicks

  8. Why Measure Sports Skills? Achievement Classification Diagnosis Motivation Practice Program Accountability

  9. Why Measure Sports Skills? When testing emphasize form and technique. May use checklist, rating chart, analytical, and holistic rubrics.

  10. Responsibilities after Measurement Related to purposes of measurement If for achievement and grading, should have grading scale (norm-referenced or criteria-referenced) If classification, must determine scores for group placement If diagnostic, provide guidance for improvement of weaknesses and increase strengths

  11. Responsibilities after Measurement If motivation, emphasize positive aspects and provide challenges for improvement Never allow program accountability to be only reason for testing
