Tactics

Planned and ad hoc decisions and actions, employed in the moment for the pursuit of goal/s.

Tactics

What it could look like:

  • Keeping possession of the ball in response to what an opposing team does e.g. football/soccer
  • Adapting a plan due to changed circumstances e.g. revising training activities due to weather conditions

Pre-foundational - Stage 0

I have the potential to learn through movement and physical activity.  At this stage I do not understand why, when and how I would participate in movement and physical activity.

Foundation & Exploration - Stage 1

Employs a tactic to solve a challenge or problem in movement and physical activity.

  • Using an action to attempt a successful outcome e.g. using 'ball fakes' to go past an opponent in basketball
  • Selecting an incoming wave to surf on

Acquisition & Accumulation - Stage 2

Applies multiple and different tactics to solve challenges or problems in movement and physical activity.

  • Using a range of actions to attempt a successful outcome e.g. using a variety of passes to keep possession in a basketball game
  • Deciding which surfing manoeuvres are possible on an approaching wave

Consolidation & Mastery - Stage 3

Implements multiple tactics seamlessly to solve emerging challenges and problems in movement and physical activity.

  • Considering factors such time, weather and opponent's strengths and weaknesses into tactical decision making e.g. keeping possession to 'wind down the clock' as full-time approaches
  • Adjusting surfing manoeuvres mid-wave to maximise scoring as a wave alters speed or shape

Transfer & Empowerment - Stage 4

I am empowered by movement and physical activity. I continually transfer my skills, knowledge and feelings to different movement and physical activity contexts. I use combinations of elements from all four domains, and apply my learnings through movement and physical activity to other aspects of my life.

  • Deciding to become a volunteer at your local surf club, so that you can pass on your knowledge of a range of aquatic activities (swimming, surfing, paddling) and your knowledge of the local environment to others. Personally, this also enables to you to enjoy more time on the beach/in the water, as well as support your own fitness and lifestyle goals.
