Performance analysis

In an interview with England U19 cricketer and A-level PE student Sophia Dunkley, Adam Morton outlines the main requirements of coursework Task 2.4

As a cricketer playing for Middlesex Women’s and England U19, Sophia Dunkley’s experience is invaluable in context of the requirements for Task 2.4.

You are required to identify and examine four core skills in your chosen sport. Examples might include types of pass in hockey or a range of different skills such as spin bowling, over-arm throwing, the long barrier and the cover drive in cricket. Each skill should be broken down into three phases, with annotated pictures (Figure 1) used to highlight key technical information such as coaching points. A comprehensive movement analysis should be completed and include the naming of joints, prime movers, types of movement and muscle contraction.
