Interceptive Actions in Sport - Information and Movement (Paperback)

Dynamic interceptive actions play a significant role in human behaviour, and are central to all forms of sporting activity. This book is the first to offer a comprehensive review of current theoretical research on dynamic interceptive actions, as well as demonstrating the connections between theory and practice for a wide range of key sporting skills.
An international team of authors, including many of the key figures in the field, present important new work on many of the most fundamental sporting actions such as : *catching
* hitting
* external-paced striking
* self-paced timing tasks
* locomotion towards targets or long surfaces
* kicking.
This book offers a wealth of theoretical material, as well as unique analysis of dynamic interceptive actions in practice. It will be essential reading for anybody with an interest in motor control and skill acquisition, and will also be of interest to students and practitioners in sport psychology, movement science and coaching science.
