  2. Types of Ability Perceptual Ability The process of dealing with information which we receive from our senses As a defender has 2 attackers running towards him there is a lot of information to receive • Needs to organise the information so that a course of action can be decided upon (Cognition) • All this needs to be in a split second Perceptual abilities allow you to process information from the display (environment)… • Speed of perception- how fast you can compare various elements within the display • Being able to divide your attention between different parts of the display • Analysing movement and predicting future movement/position • Selection- Filtering out any unwanted information from the display.

  4. Types of Skill Perceptual Skill How we select, organise and recognise information gained from our senses. • Built on our perceptual abilities • Developed via maturation and practice Learning how to select the relevant information is essential as you often have information overload when playing • Hearing a teammates call over the noise of a crowd.

  5. Types of Skill Cognitive Skill Is the selection process where you choose which action to use and when. Can be improved via experience… • When playing an opponent in tennis if you know their strengths and weaknesses • Develop by watching match footage of previous games If technique has become habitual (automatic) it is easier to give more of your attention to cognition as you aren’t thinking about required muscle contractions or technical points

  6. Types of Skill Psychomotor Skill Our physical movements which are controlled by the brain. They will always be pre-determined towards an object or outcome • Based on :- • Information from the perceptual skill • Decision making from the cognitive skill
