A Great Teaching Tool for Sports
Having your games filmed can be an asset to your team. Game footage can be a useful teaching tool for athletes. Studies show that most people are visual learners. It can be said that many athletes are not learning all they could be just from listening to their coaches. Here is where having your games on video can help. It is especially useful in youth sports because some athletes have a hard time understanding without seeing and telling them and then being able to show them exactly where they can improve is a huge benefit. When they watch themselves out there playing they can see what everyone else sees.
One example of how it can be a useful teaching tool is to have the practices filmed and then shown to the athletes so they can fix what they did wrong before the big game. This way they are able to see the mistake and realize how they can do better. It can provide motivation for the athletes to try and do better. Not only does it help the players, but also the coaches. The coaches are able to see how they can better teach the athlete a skill. It can give the coaches the opportunity to work with players individually and break down the skills for that player. Watching practices and games can also be beneficial in preventing future injuries. Making sure athletes have the proper form and techniques is key to preventing injuries. The videos would allow them to see their form and techniques for themselves. You can see how video analysis can be beneficial for student-athletes. Having your games filmed should be apart of every team’s agenda.
