Ecological Dynamics Approach to FootballEdición 1

Ecological Dynamics Approach to Football is the first book to apply insights from research in ecological dynamics to the sport of football.

Ecological dynamics is a theoretical framework that draws on ecological psychology, complexity sciences, and dynamical systems concepts in examining interactions among constraints and the emergence of movement and performance behaviours.

This book shows how an ecological dynamics approach can be used to design better practices for the development of football players and for the performance preparation of both players and teams. This book also discusses how practitioner professional development pathways can be framed by an ecological dynamics approach. Ecological Dynamics Approach to Football integrates experiential and empirical knowledge in football, with important implications for both scientific understanding and applications for competing and training.

This book is key reading for students on coaching, sport pedagogy, and football courses as well as sport practitioners working as coaches, trainers, performance analysts, coach educators, and sport science support staff.
