Episode notes
Skill Is Contextual Adaptability
- Skill is the ability to perform and adapt across different contexts and opponents.
- Being skillful means you can apply actions in varying situations, not just repeat a single movement.
Three Ways Skill Appears
- Development, emergence and acquisition are distinct processes that produce skill.
- Acquisition can be taught and lost, while development/emergence depend more on environment and time.
Guide Discovery, Don't Leave It To Chance
- Use guided discovery rather than pure free play to shape the behaviours you want.
- Give teams simple rules or roles so players explore solutions while the coach still directs outcomes.
