Complexity and Control in Team Sports

Angebote / Angebote:

Complexity and Control in Team Sports is the first book to apply complex systems theory to `soccer-like¿ team games (including basketball, handball and hockey) and to present a framework for understanding and managing the elite sports team as a multi-level complex system. It analyzes behaviour across five inter-connected levels: the team as a `managed institution¿, coaching staff controlling players via cybernetic flows, the team as a playing unit, the individual player as a complex dynamic system expressed through behaviour, and a player¿s complex physiological/biological system. Drawing these together, the book throws fascinating new light on the elite sports team and will be useful reading for all students, researchers or professionals with an interest in sport psychology, sport management, sport coaching, sport performance analysis or complex systems theory.
