  • Training Proprioception and Touch for Ball Handling in Sports
    TRAINING PROPRIOCEPTION AND TOUCH FOR BALL HANDLING IN SPORTS Angel Palacios Working Paper [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Having a good sense of touch and proprioception is essential for ball handling in ball sports. Handling a ball requires the player to pay as little attention to the ball as possible in order for him to be able to pay attention to the other players around him or to the circumstances of the game. In order to do that, players need to develop their touch and proprioceptive senses and their mental system for managing their peripersonal space. Two approaches are described herein that allow players to train those senses to enhance their ball handling skills. INTRODUCTION Many of the activities performed by us rely on the automatic and instinctive control of our body. An area where this is particularly important is sports, particularly ball sports. For example, when a soccer player is handling the soccer ball and has to go past several opponents, he needs to pay as little attention to the ball as possible in order to be able to pay attention to where the opponents are and anticipate their intentions. The same happens in other sports such as basketball, handball, hockey (where rather than a ball there is a puck) and others. In these circumstances, the player needs to control the ball in a way that is as automatic and instinctive as possible. As Stephan Curry explains in an interview to CSN about his training methods with Brandon Payne: “When we are out playing, there are so many things you have to think about[...].

  • Can 7 Aside Rugby Improve Australian Rugby?
    Can 7 aside Rugby Improve Australian Rugby? Since the 1990s Australia's rugby teams have had a relatively high success rate, with the Wallabies ranking in the top 3 international teams regularly and our Super Rugby Franchises winning 3 Super Rugby Championships (equal to South Africa). The successes of the Wallabies and their Australian Rugby franchises could easily lead someone to believing that rugby in Australia is one of the most popular sports and has a high level of player participation. However, things aren’t, as they seem. Rugby in Australia is located in, arguably the most competitive organized sport market in the world. Rugby Union was ranked only the 9th highest participated organized sport in Australia in 2012 (according to the ABS (2012a) Survey of Children's Participation in Culture and Leisure Activities, Australia, 2012 (CPCLA) (cat. no. 4901.0), with only 4% of children playing the sport, well behind Soccer at 21.7%, Australian Football League (AFL) at 14.9% and Rugby League on 7.5%. In fact Australia has as little as 86,952 players participating in the game, while America has grown to 81,678 participants (according to The Economic Impact Report On Global Rugby: Strategic and Emerging Market report). Compare that to England 2,549,196 and South Africa (632,184), Australia ranks well behind it’s international competitors in player participation. Which shows that despite the participation numbers Australia has punched well above its weight. When looking towards the future can Rugby sustain its position in this very competitive organized sport market? I believe that Australian Rugby is at a cross road in which it has a choice of continuing on the same road it is travelling on or to look for ways to reinvent itself and increase the player participation rate, especially in the juniors.
