- Abstract
This study was designed to examine the effects of three practice schedules --i.e., blocked, variable and combined-- on the acquisition of the pattern of ball kicking towards stationary targets using the dominant foot, determined by recording temporal and spatial-temporary variables (linear speed of both knees and foot). A sample of 60 4th graders (30 boys and 30 girls; M age= 9.45, SD= .3) were randomly assigned to three different practice groups (blocked= 20, Variable= 20, Combined= 20). The results seem to confirm that, in agreement with the parameters that characterize expert players, the organization of variable and combined practices leads to a better acquisition of kick-ball skills by improving the temporal pattern of movements (enhanced momentum transfer between joints and segments that participate in the movement), and by lowering the highest-speed peak of each joint of the segment used to kick the ball, trying to reduce variability with the aim of decreasing error levels in pursuing the target.
