BASIC ACTION TESTING & TRAINING
REVOLUTIONARY NEW CONCEPT!
Andy Barr and Raymond Verheijen will present a revolutionary new concept for identifying and improving deficiencies within the actions and movements of individual players. After more than 10 years of reflecting, experimenting and more reflecting, Barr and Verheijen will introduce a football-specific concept to correct deficiencies to help players further improve their football actions (performance) and to reduce the injury risk (prevention).
The terminology, definitions and references used in this innovative new concept are based on the ‘Football Theory’ concept by sports philosopher Jan Tamboer. Thanks to the football action language introduced by Tamboer (2003), Barr and Verheijen have been able to translate the general knowledge in areas like screening, monitoring, movement, and training in a more purposeful way to the football context.
This new concept defined in football action language will first of all improve the internal communication between football coaches and staff members responsible for the screening and training of (movement) deficiencies. Most importantly, this methodology will increase the chance of improving performance and reducing injuries because the players’ football actions are both the origin and the finish line within this concept for screening, testing and training players.
