Unit 27 Task 3

Performer Improvement Targets

Introduction

• This task builds on your Task 2 work.• You need to test your four identified

weaknesses. The testing process should use standardised or bespoke tests.

• From this testing your results will identify two priority areas for improvement.

• Your eight week training plan will focus on these two priority areas only.

Testing and Training Timeline• WB 05/01: Task 3 Introduction• WB 12/01: Task 3 Testing and Planning• WB 19/01: Training week 1/8• WB 26/01: Training week 2/8• WB 02/02: Training week 3/8• WB 09/02: Training week 4/8 – review week

– Review week includes re-testing and profiling.– Changes may be made to your training plan at this stage.

No Normative Data: No

If Not A Standardised Test Detail Method Here:

There will be a questionnaire where they will answer what they believe there strengths are and I will compare this to there athlete profiling to see what they believe they are good at and what they believe they aren't and I can see how well the athlete knows there strengths.

Test Result 1: 9/10 Test Result 1 Rating: Excellent

Standardised Test:



This is a series of 10 questions which are yes/no answers and it gives basic questions of the opposition and the more the athlete answers with a yes then the better he is at knowing his opposition.

Standardised Test:



First I will need to see the tactics that are used by the coach. After this I will have to go and see how they play during the game by watching some matches and score them out of 10 to see how well they follow the tactics in the game.

Improvement Target 1 (P6)Priority Excellence Trait

Aerobic fitness

Baseline Test Result

Poor

Specific Target Reach average

Measurable I will be measuring the amount of distance that Alice runs within 12 minutes.

Agreed Upon This is agreed upon as I have the facilities needed for her to be able to do this as we have the Worthing leisure centre to do this and Alice has agreed to do it.

Realistic It is realistic as I will be able to take Alice to the places that she needs to be at to be able to reach her target.

Time Based Baseline test (WB 12/01):Review (WB 09/02):Complete (WB 09/03):

Improvement Target 1 – Justification (M3)

• Why is this target needed?• What will be the performance benefit to the

performer (e.g. team selection, injury prevention and representative honours)?

• What will be the performance benefit to the performers team(s) (e.g. unit, attack, defence and whole team benefits)?

Student Justification 1The targets are needed because it gives objectives for Alice to try and reach and without them there may not be an incentive to try and improve and it is important for her to improve her aerobic endurance so this is the perfect target for her to try and reach as it will improve her game when she is back on the rugby field.The benefit to her will be that she is able to be in the starting XI and play the whole match so she wont have to come off from being worn out as she will be a lot more fit and wont need to be replaced by other team-mates. She will be less likely to be injured as well as she will be more able to go on for longer so she wont be overdoing it if she is made to play longer which is a possible risk to injury but with her aerobic endurance being better she wont be overdoing herself as she will be able to keep going. The performance benefit will be that she is able to give her team a better advantage as she will be able to keep going through the whole match and give the team a better edge then it did before as she would be able to give it her all and a better performance for longer.

Improvement Target 2 (P6)Priority Excellence Trait

Knowing your opposition

Baseline Test Result

Below average

Specific Target Average

Measurable I will be measuring this out of ten with how many answers they got right from the 10 questions.

Agreed Upon This is agreed upon as Alice has the facilities to do it and Alice has agreed to doing it.

Realistic It is realistic as Alice will be able to do the research that she needs to do at any time.

Time Based Baseline test (WB 12/01):Review (WB 09/02):Complete (WB 09/03):

Improvement Target 2 – Justification (M3)

• Why is this target needed?• What will be the performance benefit to the

performer (e.g. team selection, injury prevention and representative honours)?

• What will be the performance benefit to the performers team(s) (e.g. unit, attack, defence and whole team benefits)?

Student Justification 2This target is needed as it gives Alice an objective to try and reach and without that there may not be an incentive to try and get to it, not only this but Alice had this trait as her second worse so it is important for her to improve this. The benefit to Alice as a performer is that she will be able to do better when she is playing as she will be able to use this trait to gain an advantage on the opposition so she will be able to know if her opposite is slow or fast and knows whether she should pass or take her opposite on depending on her strengths and weaknesses.The performance benefits to the team are that Alice wont be making as many mistakes in game as she will know her opposition and what they are good and bad at so she will minimise making a mistake which can cost the team possession as she will have gained a better advantage to be able to help the team out more attacking giving there team an overall better performance.
