2) List what a good teacher or trainer should observe for the teaching to be
efficient has meaning for the student or athlete.
The behavior of the coach during the teaching-learning process of a
sports modality, in training or in competition, has recently been the subject of study
from various investigations (Arroyo & Alvarez, 2004).
At the training level, one of the reference studies in this area was conducted by Tharp and
Gallimore (1976), who conducted the analysis of the behavior of the renowned coach of
college basketball, John Wooden. The observation was made in 15 sessions of the season
1974/75, having been used, in the analysis, a system of behavioral categories.
The Instruction (50.3%) was the predominant behavior, demonstrating that the coach
emphasizes your intervention in the instruction of tasks and in the correction of the athletes' performances.
3) The teacher in their educational practice must be based on a tripod: what to teach, the
who teaches and how to teach. Explain this tripod.

To educate thinkers is to form free individuals, capable of doubting, criticizing, feeling,
to intuit, to fight for oneself and for the common good. Thinking is living, it is finding your way.

its construction". (FREIRE, 1996:26)

Didactics in the present time.
For José Carlos Libanêo, Didactics is a pedagogical discipline that studies the objects,
conditions of the teaching process, the means and the educational scenario. Because the contents of the
teaching disciplines stem from the science that underpins them. The teaching discipline
involves a selection of knowledge based on pedagogical and didactic criteria; of
In the same way, the methods of science and the methods of teaching are connected, not identical.
because teaching activity implies a pedagogical relationship that is peculiar to it, distinguishing
from that which occurs in scientific activity (LIBÂNEO, 1994).

A) Talk about the main factors that intervene in the process of teaching and sports training
As Hernández Moreno (2000) states, any process of initiation, teaching, and training
sports should consider three fundamental factors, which intervene decisively in
considered process. These are:
The Individual - The characteristics of the subject practicing must be taken into account. Their
basic physical abilities, your personality, your motor experience, your
behavior or your learning ability are factors to take into account
at the time of applying a teaching and sports training process.
- Sport - The characteristics of the modality, its structure and dynamics are a factor
significant, since based on these the practitioner will have greater aptitude for one or the other
19
mode. The practical characteristics also determine, to a great extent, the training process.
considered.
- Context - The characteristics of the subject and the activity complemented by the context
in which both are situated. As mentioned earlier, it will not be the same if the activity
it is contextualized in an environment with a greater educational tendency such as school sports, or if
for an environment where performance is an essential factor, also considering the variants of
leisure and physical activity previously presented. The purposes of these activities are different.
what implies that the characteristics of the teaching and sports training process also
they must be.
These factors form an interactive triangle in which every coach should
to influence and seek to dominate the achievement of their teaching and sports training process.
In the following sections, we will dedicate ourselves to the specification of the different models of
organization of the training focusing on those we believe are more in line with the
development of the potential of the interaction established by the previously mentioned factors
described.
10) Briefly describe the models of initiation, teaching, and sports training.
There are two models known and currently worked on in initiation, teaching, and training.
sport for young people: the first 'technical' or 'traditional' model and the models
"alternatives" or "comprehensive," where the former precedes the latter in time.
In this sense, we can affirm that, on one hand, the technical or traditional model focuses on
development of technical skills in the first instance, while on the other
on the other hand, alternative or comprehensive models focus on the development of skills
integrated into a game context, valuing the contents on a deeper scale
tactics and the reality perceived by the practitioner.
In this way, we briefly present both models, even while assuming our
interest and personal conviction in alternative or comprehensive models.
11) Talk about the main phases that characterize the technical initiation model.
The traditional model of sports education adopts as its methodology the development of
sports technique as the main premise to start and develop the practice of any
sports discipline. Contreras, de la Torre & Velásquez (2001) cite Ruiz Pérez (1996) to
20
it is noted that in this approach to sports education 'it is considered that the learning of
technical components must precede the introduction of practitioners to tactical secrets and
strategic.
Regarding the constituent phases of the teaching and training process underlying the model
technical or traditional we can observe below its schematization, which was
presented by Contreras, de la Torre & Velásquez (2001).
In this model, all specific skills are based on a performance model.

two problems that arise when trying to achieve the game objectives. This is, therefore, a
model that focuses on the analytical aspects of sports technique development
(first decomposing it into its distinct phases of execution) and then in its integration
styled in a game situation, first simulated and then real or adapted.
This is a model that was imported from the realm of high-performance sports reaching up to
in the context of School Physical Education, what justifies its focus on technical precision of
execution aimed at a functional and aesthetic improvement of the considered technique.
In this regard, as stated by Castejón, Giménez, Jiménez & López (2003), "the model
technician, focused on technical execution before moving to tactics, provided guarantees to some
agents, but there are clear limitations in Physical Education when it comes to starting any
sport, in relation to the majority of other agents. Nevertheless, sport also
should be understood as a means of transmitting values and, in this case, an application
focused exclusively on the representation of one or more execution models
proven, but with a clear incitement to imitation, also implies a learning
mimetic, which may have no meaning for the learners, apart from instilling in them
a plan that is slightly critical and does not promote autonomy.
12) Talk about alternative or comprehensive models in teaching and sports training.
In response to the shortcomings presented by the technical or traditional model, new approaches are emerging.
In recent years, a methodological focus on initiation, teaching, and sports training. In this
the conception, the technical execution itself is no longer the main target of the sports action,
but rather the tactical performance (that is, the application of technique in a game situation), the
response plasticity, the ability to solve the various problems that arise in
playful but more complex sports practice. Thus, perfect technical execution does not have to
to be the sole and primary objective of sports action, but rather its inclusion in context,
21
that is, to know and apply (declarative and procedural knowledge) the 'when?'
"how?" and "why?" of said usage.
In this line, Rink, French & Tjeerdsma (1996) emphasize that the great contribution of
comprehensive models developed based on Teaching Games for Understanding
The appreciation of the game and the development of knowledge and awareness
tactics must precede the development of the motor skills of this game, that is, the
"what to do?" should precede "how to do?" In this sense, Devís (1996) states that "the
context and the problems of the game are inseparable and both relate to its tactic until
to the point that, to resolve motor issues arising within the context of play, it will be
it is necessary to understand the basic tactical principles or aspects.
A teaching for the understanding of sports games therefore implies addressing the
learning of tactical aspects. In this way, the learning and development of
sports games will progress from tactics to technique, from why to what to do.
Thus, comprehensive sports education "fosters, through reflection on and about the
practice, the relationship between what they are learning and what is already known, and in turn recognizes and
promotes the autonomy of practitioners through the constant evaluation of the adequacy of resources
employed regarding the objective to be achieved in each practical situation" (Castejón,
Giménez, Jiménez & López, 2003).
Regarding the different ways to carry out comprehensive education in sports, Castejón,
Giménez, Jiménez & López (2003) show the schematization made by Jiménez (2000)
When considering and comparing the two models and, within the comprehensive models, the differences

characteristics and objectives of sports activities where the practitioner begins and trains,

comprehensive models, those that focus their action on a single sports modality and
those that focus on the internal logic that present similar modalities (such as, for
example, team sports or combat sports). On the other hand, from the point of

conditional capabilities
Conditional capacities provide the practitioner with the necessary bio-physiological basis for the
its sports development. Due to its fundamental importance, but also because of its high
level of control and measurement, these deserve our special attention
regarding coordinative abilities.
Force
According to Hahn (1988), force is the ability of a human being to overcome or act against.
an external resistance based on the nervous and metabolic processes of the musculature.
However, Castelo et al. (1996) state that the definition of strength is not unanimous, so
it will always be essential to analyze the structure of the different forms of manifestation of this,
Bompa (2002) points out that 'resistance refers to the length of time that an individual'
can perform a job with a certain intensity. The main factor that
limits and at the same time affects performance is fatigue.
24
Depending on the time it takes for fatigue to set in, different types can be defined.
manifestations of the capacity for resistance. For this reason, it is common to refer to the existence of
a general resistance (multifunctional, common to different sports modalities) and a
specific resistance (eminently related to the type of effort required and
trained). The latter is associated with short, medium, and long-term resistance manifestations.
long duration.
In youth training, long-duration endurance should be prioritized, since the
this organism does not seem receptive to short or medium duration stimuli.
the ability to dose effort should thus be an important factor in the application of training
of resistance, since young people tend to act in bursts of intensity.
Speed
Castelo et al. (1996) summarize the definition of speed as 'the ability to react.'
quickly, to a signal or stimulus and/or perform movements with reduced opposition in
as brief a period of time as possible.
Among the different manifestations of speed that we can find, we gather these
in three fundamental types:
Reaction Speed: it is the ability to respond to stimuli of any kind (visual,
auditory, tactile, etc.) in the shortest possible time.
Execution Speed: it is the ability to perform a technical gesture in its entirety.
amplitude in the shortest amount of time.
Speed of Movement: in this we can consider the acceleration speed (since the
inactivity to movement), the maximum speed (maximum movement that the body can
to reach) and the resistance speed (corresponding to the absence and non-appearance of fatigue
in short-term efforts).
We can also divide speed into cyclical (continuous movements like running) or
acyclic (non-continuous movements such as the execution of a technical gesture).
Speed training in young people allows for the improvement of its different components, thus
such as gestural frequency and overall dynamic coordination.
Flexibility
from third parties. In flexibility training, the movements should be smooth, avoiding the
appearance of pain.
25
Flexibility promotes the economy of movements, reduces parasitic muscle tensions and
prevents the appearance of injuries. The flexibility work should be done more in
the sense of maintaining the levels presented by the youth rather than increasing them, as is the case
with the other conditional capabilities.
Both flexibility and the other conditional abilities should be stimulated.

space where one finds oneself, one’s companions and/or adversaries anticipating
also the dynamics of this process.
Kinesthetic Differentiation Ability - Allows for the discrimination and adjustment of movements
carried out with economy and precision, regardless of their dynamics. It controls the
information coming from the musculature, regulating the application of movement.
Balance Ability - Allows to preserve, maintain and restore the body's balance.
throughout the entire motor action.
Rhythm Ability - Allows the perception and execution of motor gestures in their
appropriate moment and in accordance with the requests of the context.
-Reaction Capacity - Allows for the initiation of motor actions quickly and effectively in a
determined moment of expectation.
26
The degree and quality of coordination functions influence the speed and quality of
learning processes of skills and sports techniques. These abilities allow
a quick degree of adaptation to variable conditions and thus ensure overcoming
the multiple situations that the action provides.
However, the coordinative skills manifest themselves in different ways in the various
sports modalities. The coach must thus have a clear understanding of the core abilities in
your mode of election or at the moment of sports training in which the practitioner
find. However, these are capabilities that are difficult to measure due to their
dependence on the Central Nervous System, so the trainer's work will be developed
in accordance with what he/she will consider correct at the appropriate moment.
Spatial Orientation - Determines the position, situation, and movement of the body in space and in
time. Allows the practitioner to place themselves in a practical situation, recognizing the space where they
find oneself, one's companions and/or one's adversaries also foreseeing the
dynamics of this process.
Spatial orientation Ability to perceive and modify the position of the body in
space and time.

The coach, in addition to his technical skills, should also convey attitudes,
values and norms both sporting and social. One should be aware and a promoter of the best
27
18) Talk about some values that coaches should encourage in parents.
According to Cruz, Boixadós, Torregros & Valiente (2008), the main values that the
coaches should encourage parents to do the following:
Encourage the sports participation of children;
Ensure a quality sports practice;
Show an appropriate degree of interest and involvement in sports activities;
Promote sportsmanship by acting as a model of self-control;
Participate in the logistical tasks of the sports entity;
Practice some type of sport as well, promoting a healthy lifestyle;
Value the physical and health development of sports programs instead of their
level of income;
Applaud and encourage both good plays and the effort made;
Applaud and encourage the good plays of the opposing teams regardless of the outcome;
Recognize the coach's role, not giving technical instructions that may contradict them;
29
3.0 Conclusion
First of all, it is clear that the task orientation and the creation of a climate
directed towards mastery is related to the adoption of sporting behaviors, while
a climate directed towards the ego generates maladaptive behaviors
The role of the youth coach is more than just conducting training sessions and competitions. This
you must assume yourself as a social reference, knowing the possibilities and capabilities of
learning of its practitioners and the best methods they need to
to develop. He should also be knowledgeable about the technical-tactical regulations and dynamics of his
methodology in order to be able to adapt the principles set out to your training plan.
