What are the six content requirements for special sports skills

From the campus physical education syllabus to the general training standards for professional sports teams, the six core requirements for special sports skills are accurate mastery of basic skills, flexible use of combined techniques, tactical thinking ability, special physical fitness adaptation level, rule application and adaptability, sports protection and long-term participation awareness.

Speaking of which, I led the men's basketball reserve team of a general college for three years. I have a deep understanding of these items. They are not just empty requirements listed on paper. Each item is a standard that has been learned through countless pitfalls. Let’s talk about basic skills. There was a freshman who was very accurate in three-pointers when he first joined the team. We all thought we had found a treasure. However, in the first friendly match, he was whistled for dribbling and wrist-turning three times in two minutes. He had no chance to make a shot. He himself felt aggrieved. He said that no one talked about him when playing wild ball. This is a typical example of basic skills not being developed according to special standards and not knowing the deformation of his movements.

Only when you have a solid foundation can you talk about combination skills. This is not just a matter of putting together individual actions. You must have your own rhythm, such as a pick-and-roll followed by a layup on the move, a change of direction followed by a step-back jumper, and the speed and center of gravity control of the connection. It was almost impossible. Last year in the provincial competition we met an opposing defender. His single moves were all textbook-level, but once he put them together, he got stuck. We were forced to defend him from the full court and only scored 2 points in the half. It was because his proficiency in combination skills was not fully polished.

As for tactical thinking, you really don’t just memorize the tactical board, you have to form muscle memory-level reactions. When I was coaching the high school women’s volleyball team, there was a main attacker who was very powerful in smashing the ball, but he couldn’t cooperate with the second passer.

The most easily overlooked thing among many amateurs is specific physical fitness. They always think that I can run and jump. This is not the case at all. If you train for a marathon, you cannot just practice pace. Your core strength, ankle stability, and lower limb endurance must keep up with the characteristics of the event. I have a running friend who can usually run 10 kilometers in 50 minutes. When he ran a full marathon for the first time, his legs were so weak that he fell down when he ran 30 kilometers. That is because his specific physical fitness did not meet the requirements of a full marathon. You cannot run a full marathon by quadrupling your 10-kilometer endurance.

The importance of rule application and adaptability has only been realized after suffering great losses. Previously, there was a child in our school's badminton team playing in the semi-finals of the provincial competition. The last ball was obviously hit by the opponent over the net. He did not know the rules and did not dare to raise his hand to appeal. In the end, he lost the 1 point. He squatted on the sidelines and cried for a long time. You said that your skills were better than others, but you failed because you didn't understand the rules thoroughly. What a pity.

The last aspect of sports protection and long-term participation awareness has become more and more important in the industry in recent years. In the past, the older generation always thought of "not getting out of the firing line for minor injuries", but now it is no longer advocated. After all, sports are a lifelong matter. It is not about who can practice hard in the moment, but who can play healthily. A long time ago, I once had a junior student who would not fall to the ground while playing field football, and broke his arm after falling. He could not touch the ball for half a year, and no matter how good his skills were, it was useless. Now, whether it is a campus class or a professional team training, preparatory activities, relaxation and stretching, and project-specific protective actions are all must-haves.

Oh, by the way, there are different voices in the industry now. Many scholars think that cultural awareness of the project should be added to the six items to replace sports protection. For example, to play basketball, you need to know the development history of the project and the connotation of sportsmanship. But from the perspective of front-line practice, most coaches still prefer the current six items. After all, without healthy physical support, no matter how deep cultural understanding is, it cannot be implemented through sports.
