About this book
Conditioned Games for Team Sports Training allows the reader to discover the dynamic world of conditioned games, popularly known as "small-sided games." This groundbreaking book unlocks the secrets to revolutionizing training dynamics, via comprehensive exploration of conditioned games, unveiling the unique characteristics that set conditioned games apart, and examines the impacts of manipulating task constraints on players' acute responses and chronic adaptations. Coaches seeking to elevate their teams and achieve specific training objectives have long relied on these modified game formats. To address multiple coaching goals simultaneously, these games are comprehensive exercises that require a thorough understanding of how to design them, when to design them, and why to design them.
This book is the first to offer a dual-purpose resource: a robust theoretical foundation detailing how task constraints impact team sports players, then moving to provide examples for a number of major team sports, demonstrating how to implement conditioned games and incorporate them into a weekly training schedule. This new, cutting-edge volume is not just about theory; it's also a practical guide that bridges the gap between research evidence and real-world applications. Whether you're a student or an academic in the field of sport coaching and performance, or a practicing coach looking to transform your approach, Conditioned Games for Team Sports Training serves as a roadmap to incorporating conditioned games and unlocking the full potential of your training activities to elevate your coaching game and bring a new dimension to your team's performance.
