This new edition of Teaching Tactical Creativity in Sport bridges the gap between theory and practice in the development of tactical creativity in team and racket sports. Creativity is an essential component of sport performance. The player who can make fast or correct decisions that are both unexpected—and therefore less easily predicted by their opponent—and appropriate is the player who is likely to be successful. Drawing on interdisciplinary research from psychology, neuroscience, movement science, training science, education science, and computer science, it presents an updated Tactical Creativity Approach (TCA) as a groundbreaking framework for fostering divergent tactical thinking.Fully updated and revised for the classroom and featuring empirical studies, validated methods for creativity measurement, and ready-to-use teaching units, this new edition offers a unique resource for sports educators, coaches, and students. The book outlines essential rules for environmental and training conditions and suggests a wide range of game forms for teaching and coaching tactical creativity to children and young people.The second edition updates key research insights and expands practical applications across various sports and age groups, making it an essential guide for students of Sport Pedagogy, Sport Coaching, and Physical Education Methods as well as anyone dedicated to advancing creative problem-solving in sport.
