5 Touch and Go Training programs are a vital part of attempting to improve in sport, and touch football is no exception. Kurt has just come back from school holidays and realised that the annual schools touch football competition is only 6 weeks away. To prepare for the event, Kurt went to two HPE teachers at the school and asked them to prepare a training program for him. Mr Jacob s Program Week 1 Weeks 2-6 Mr Magee s Program Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Sprints: (6x40m reps) Plyometric: (Box jumps, diagonal leg jumps) Flexibility: (Stretching upper and lower body) for range of motion). Ball work: Partner Up and work on passing accuracy and technique. Game: Friendly 20 minute game of touch football with team mates. Repeat Repeat Play against the younger grade teams for game practice. Week 1-2 Sprints : (4x80m reps and repeat for 3 sets) Interval:100m,200m, 100m sprints all with walk back recovery (all with 100% intensity) Weeks 3-4 Tactics: Spend time researching and practising plays and defensive tactics with a partner. Learn the coach s tactics and also recommend some you ve learnt. Visualisation: Visualise winning the upcoming tournament. Relaxation: Calm the mind and try to relax nerves. Repeat Monday Wednesday Friday (6x80m reps and repeat for 3 sets) 100m,200m, 100m sprints all with walk back recovery Plyometric: (Box jumps, diagonal leg jumps etc.) Lower Body Strength: (Squats, lunges etc.) Add in higher jumps and also standing long jump. Circuit Training: Stations with burpees, squat jumps, lying start sprints, etc.) Add in stations with agility poles and evasive exercises. Weeks m,200m, 300m, 200m, 100m sprints all with walk back recovery Same for week 5 but tone down in week 6 to avoid fatigue. Same for week 5 but rest for week 6.

6 Touch and Go Q1 List three positives and three negatives in relation to training principles from Mr Jacob s program. Make sure you use vocabulary such as progressive overload, frequency, intensity, specificity etc. Positives Q2 Negatives In what ways is Mr Magee s program an improvement on that of Mr Jacob s? List at least three and ensure they are relevant to touch football.

7 Touch and Go Q3 Which training program do you think will allow Kurt to perform to the best of his ability after the full 6 weeks? Fully justify your response with reference to relevant training principles and state whether or not you would use this program yourself and why?

10 Item Description Please note: any activity that is not completed during class time may be set for homework or undertaken at a later date. Touch and Go Activity Description: This lesson contains three activities that have been designed to allow students to practise the CCE of analysing through the use of the Health and Physical Education topic of Training Programs. The activity, Touch and Go, provides students with two poor examples of a 6 week touch football program. Students were required to critically analyse them to - highlight their positives and negatives, make comparisons between the two and finally recommend which they considered was the better. Purpose of Lesson: To enhance students ability to thoroughly analyse a stimulus in order to better understand and utilise the information to make judgements. CCE: Analysing (θ43) Suggested Time Allocation: This lesson is designed to take approximately 20 minutes to complete. Teaching Notes: The activity, Touch and Go, allows students to improve their analytical skills by providing them with two poor examples of touch football programs and requiring them to answer in depth qualitative and comparative questions. Students require a pen or pencil Remind students that their analysis of the program should incorporate training principles such as the F.I.T.T (frequency, intensity, time, type), progressive overload, specificity etc. The activity could be extended by asking students what they would include in their own touch football program. This would extend their knowledge on training principles, whilst encouraging creative thinking about their current state of preparedness for touch. Follow Up/ Class Discussion Questions: Could a single training program be used for the whole team? What significance do training principles have on how a touch football team performs?

11 Touch and Go Q1 List three positives and three negatives in relation to training principles from Mr Jacob s program. Make sure you use vocabulary such as progressive overload, frequency, intensity, specificity etc. Positives Negatives The training is very specific for touch football (ie ball He will be unprepared physically as the frequency of work and passing drills as well as games against other teams) Kurt will stay very motivated from his success There is no progressive overload in the program so visualisation and minimising nervousness due to his relaxation. Training intensity is generally low and he is required to No agility training is included. This is a downside to stretch, (albeit once a week), which will lower the risk of injury. Q2 one fitness session a week is too low for any significant improvement. Kurt will not keep improving over the whole six weeks the program as agility is a key fitness element for touch players. In what ways is Mr Magee s program an improvement on that of Mr Jacob s? List at least three and ensure they are relevant to touch football. The program is extremely fitness based and this is important for touch football as it is a very fast and intense sport. The short sprints and interval training is ideal to develop fitness for touch due to the short bursts of speed required in the game. Agility training and strengthening are also included which is an improvement on Mr Jacob s program. This aspect is crucial as changes in direction are very common whether you are trying to score or attempting to evade a defender. Progressive overload will allow Kurt to keep improving and not reach a steady-state of performance due to the fact the training will progressively become harder and pushing up his level of fitness. The program also tapers off towards the end of week six to ensure he isn t too fatigued for the tournament. These aspects are all improvements on Mr Jacob s recommended program.

12 Touch and Go Q3 Which training program do you think will allow Kurt to perform to the best of his ability after the full 6 weeks? Fully justify your response with reference to relevant training principles and state whether or not you would use this program yourself and why? Kurt is a member of the school touch football team so it is fair to assume he knows how to play the game. Therefore, the games against younger teams and ball handling drills would assist him but aren t crucial to his success over a 6 week period. This means it would be more beneficial for him to spend the 6 weeks becoming physically prepared in Mr Magee s program rather than partaking in that of Mr Jacob s. The frequency of sprints, gym work and agility/strength training is appropriate with a days rest in between to allow for the body to recuperate. The frequency of sprints in the one running session a week is high to simulate a full game of touch football. The intensity of all the sessions is also extremely high for short periods with rest intervals in between. This training is very specific to touch football. Mr Magee s program will allow Kurt to continue becoming fitter by utilising the progressive overload aspect. I would not use either of these programs myself, due to the fact that they are both too imbalanced. I would rather use a program that incorporated a mix of the strong fitness aspects in Mr Magee s program and the touch specific ball handling and gameplay activities in that of Mr Jacob s.

13 Touch and Go Question One: Students were required to analyse the first touch football training program and determine a list of 3 positives and 3 negatives aspects of the program. References should have been made to training principles. A model response is provided below. Model Response: Question Two: The students were then asked to write a response which details the improvements from the first program to the second program. References should have been made to training principles when describing the improvements. A model response is provided below. Model Response: Positives Negatives The training is very specific for touch football (ie ball He will be unprepared physically as the frequency of work and passing drills as well as games against other teams) Kurt will stay very motivated from his success There is no progressive overload in the program so visualisation and minimising nervousness due to his relaxation. Training intensity is generally low and he is required to No agility training is included.

This teacher s answer guide is continued on the next page...

14 Question Three: The students were asked in question three to go back through both programs and ascertain which one they thought would enable Kurt to perform the best after 6 weeks. The responses should ve been crafted with justification in regards to training principles and relevance to touch football. A reflection on whether they would personally use either of the programs was then required. A model response is provided below. Model Response: Kurt is a member of the school touch football team so it is fair to assume he knows how to play the game. Therefore, the games against younger teams and ball handling drills would assist him but aren t crucial to his success over a 6 week period. This means it would be more beneficial for him to spend the 6 weeks becoming physically prepared in Mr Magee s program rather than partaking in that of Mr Jacob s.
