Aim: To develop the learners’ understanding of how psychology can be applied to sports performance and exercise environments. You are working with a youth sports team as part of your sports coaching course. The coach complains to you about some of his youth athletes, saying that they don't have the right personality to make it as athletes in his team. Design a two (2) page leaflet that provides coach education regarding the relationship between personality, sports participation and performance. Evaluate the relationship between motivation, sports participation and performance. Identify four (4) factors that can influence group dynamics within team sports and explain each factor within the context of a specific team and game (provide the date, the opposing team, expected outcome and importance of the game). Discuss the particular action with regards to the outcome (positive and negative), the possible motive behind the action and the counter response.
