Module summary
This module equips students with the theoretical and practical knowledge for conducting needs analysis for individual and team sport, designing and implementing analysis for performance and related parameters in team and individual sports. The module focuses on evaluating different parameters of performance from technical, tactical, physiological, biomechanical and injury risk perspectives. In addition, the module explores the application of this knowledge to performance analysis, the development of sporting excellence, and injury prevention
The aims of this module are aligned with the qualification descriptors within the Quality Assurance Agency’s Framework for Higher Education Qualifications. The module aims to: provide an understanding of physiological, technical and biomechanical factors of sports performance. Provide an understanding and applied knowledge of assessment for endurance, speed, power and strength. Develop the ability to apply theoretical understanding of performance analysis for individual and team sports in a variety of contexts (e.g. performance enhancement, performance preparation and injury prevention and rehabilitation). Develop critical thinking skills for data analysis and interpretation of results for practical programme implementation.
Syllabus
Needs analysis for Team Sport LO 1, LO 2
Technical and Tactical development & monitoring in team sport LO 1, LO 2
Technology and software for team performance analysis LO 3
Key performance indicators for monitoring & development in team training LO 2, LO 4
Practical implementation of monitoring and analysis in team sport LO 2, LO 4
Balance of independent study and scheduled teaching activity
Knowledge of the subject matter will be communicated through lectures and tutorials. Appropriate supporting materials will be provided for these class sessions, together with a wider range of web-based learning resources and other student-centred learning opportunities. Practical classes will be used to develop expertise with data collection and evaluation, and will form the basis of the coursework component. Self-managed time and private study should be distributed over the whole year and not left until the final weeks. Students’ study responsibilities are further articulated in the Student Handbook, Course Handbook and Module Information booklet available on Weblearn.
Learning outcomes
On successful completion of this module students will be able to:
1. Give an account of parameters of strength, endurance, speed and power for performance in individual and team sports.
2. Explain physiological and biomechanical constraints of sports performance.
3. Demonstrate understanding of technical and tactical performance evaluation in a variety of contexts (individual and/or team) for performance enhancement and injury prevention.
4. Demonstrate practical understanding of relevant hardware and software for sport and exercise performance analysis
Assessment strategy
Written Report 1: Showing understanding of principles of performance for an individual sport. (LO 1,2,3)
Practical examination to assess practical understanding of hardware and software relevant to sport and exercise performance analysis (LO 4)
