Design of Session:

60 Shot Drill, 5 in a row. Foleys, B. (2017).
1. Take 10 shots each from the corner, wing and elbow on both sides of the court. After shooting 10 from each spot, shoot 2 Free Throws. After each free throw,                                                                2. Start in front of the basket and shoot the ball from 5 feet. When you make 5 in a row, take a step back. Continue moving back 1 step each time you make 5 in a row.

3. 50 Jump Shots (not set shots) from the free throw line

This session will follow a Massed Practice Design influenced by the text by; Honeybourne, J. (2006). As the session will be continuous and intensive periods of practice. Which will help the development of discrete skills in a small amount of time.

The massed practice design is influenced by the text by; Honeybourne, J. (2006). Acquiring skill in sport: an introduction. Routledge.


Statistics/Detailed & Information Collected:
  • ·         21/72 shots from the first drill
  • ·         After several attempts, I couldn’t get 5 in a row more than 3 consecutive times.
  •        22/50

Reflection:

 Foley, B. (N/A). Individual drills set for this training were more enjoyable than previous sessions. However, I still feel as I am in the cognitive stage of learning (the drill was difficult) and these drills seemed more suited for people in the associative stage. Massed Practice Design influenced by the text by; Honeybourne, J. (2006). Was a good choice of design, same again, better fitted for the associative staged person. This design suits to improve discrete skills, but I personally believe that the jump shot is closer directed towards a serial skill. This session in reflection was partially effective, and probably better implemented later in the program.

Session 8 - Two Dribble Pull Up - April 22nd Design of Session:  Dribble and Jump Shot. ILoveBasketballTV. (2016). 1) Start just above the 3-point line, standing in the triple threat position.  Facing towards the rim from a diagonal position. 2) First dribble towards the rim, and with your second dribble, regather the ball with two hands, and in a squared shooting position (like the triple threat, but not as bent at the knees). 3) With the ball coming up on the second dribble, grip the ball and follow its motion upwards, with your jump shot in a controlled manor. You should be squared towards the rim, and the motion should feel natural. 4) All shots should be in the mid-range area, take 20 shots on 5 different mid-range locations.  The following session will follow a block practice design, McAllister, L. S. (2012).   Which is useful for skill acquisition. Which includes repetition and isolated segments. Repeating something over, and o...

Session 6 - Around the World - April 16th Design of Session:  Around the world drill. Hull, L. (2014).                                                                               1.Two players line up on other ends of the key, starting closest to the rim.  2) If you shoot and make the shot, advance to the next spot, wait for the other player to shoot before you make your next shot. (check appendix to see diagram of drill) This session will follow a distributed practice design influenced by Foxon, F. (2001). which                provides more frequent and longer rest intervals between practice periods (waiting for opposing          player to shoot). Distributed practice also facilitates longer term learni...

\ Session 1 - Triple Threat - April 1st  Design of Session: Gripping the ball, and footwork Gels J. (2017).              1.Catch a basketball with two hands indicating where you want the pass to go. 2) Catch the ball in the correct triple threat position with feet in a stable position (shoulder width apart) and knees bent at 45 degrees.3) Practice without the ball, then introduce the ball. 4. After learning this skill, practice shooting a foot from the rim, focusing on the movement and preparation of the shot.  This session will follow a modelling design (Harmon K, Marzano R J. 2015) I have asked a skilled basketball player friend to demonstrate how to perform the skill prior, so I can model his movements.
