Abstract

When directly instructing players, it was suggested that verbal instructions should be kept to a minimum. Also, the use of nonverbal sources of information should be highlighted, such as when watching a demonstration or when highlighting what a movement actually feels like. But does the coach need to be on hand all the time to direct the learning of the footballer? This article addresses whether learning can take place when players practise skills by themselves.
