Task Sample Answer
The three aspects from the Emotional factor l
will discuss are Happiness, Trust and Anger, l
will use Basketball as my sport.
Happiness positively affected my performance
as scoring an impressive lay up in the opening
minute made me feel good about myself and
boosted my confidence to attempt the shot
again which I did several times scoring 85% of
total lay-up’s taken. My teammates also
congratulated me making me feel happy. This
boosted my confidence and made me relax
benefitting my awareness and concentration.
Sample Answer Cont.
Trust - When playing tough opponents, I feel
under pressure to play well and this makes me
begin to doubt my ability. However, my coach
spoke to me before our last match saying I had
done well in training and that I was now one of
the strongest players in the team. He then
asked me to mark the opponents best player.
This was a massive task but it made me feel
extra confident, relaxed and secure as I knew
my coach had faith in my ability. This paid off as
I was able to subdue my opponent, they only
scored 8 points in the whole match. My
confidence was sky high and my place in the
team felt extremely secure as a result of trust.
Sample Answer Cont.
Anger affected my decision making and level
of arousal, especially when the referee made
bad decisions. This led to me not thinking
clearly and making simple mistakes such as
shooting when I should pass to a team mate
in a far better position. This happened on five
occasions, which cost our team a potential
ten points. I also got angry when one of my
team mates didn’t pass the ball when I was
open for a lay up in the first quarter. This
caused disharmony and a negative
atmosphere in the team which is not positive.
This led to us loosing some cheap baskets.
METHODS OF
INVESTIGATING……..
• Disciplinary Record
• Questionnaire / Self Reflection

sport-emotion-questionnaire
PS, its at bottom of page, word doc.
Disciplinary Record
Below is an example of a Basketball disciplinary record. A
skilled assessor needs to fill this in as they know what to
look for and are a reliable source.
Foul Type
Technical
(unsporting)
Game 1
Game 2
Game 3
Personal
(types of
contact)
Types of foul could
be related to certain
aspects of the
Emotional Factor.
Flagrant
(violent
conduct)
EG. Flagrant - Anger
Shooting
(illegal
prevention)
Profile of Mood States (POMS)
http://www.brianmac.co.uk/poms.h
tm
POMS - A psychological test designed to measure a
person's affective states. These include tension,
depression, anger, vigour, fatigue, and confusion.
Unlike personality traits, mood states are thought
to be temporary and specific to a given situation,
although moods can also be measured for recent
prolonged periods such as the past several months.
POMS is a popular research tool among sport
psychologists. Take the test yourself and then
compare your scores to the averages in the norms
table to see which category you are closest too.

effective during pressurised situations / drills or
conditioned / training games or during real
matches.
Recognise
• Where am l going wrong?
• How is it happening?
• What am I doing differently to before?
Elite performers may ask questions such as these when in times of
difficulty. Once they have figured out their problem they then can……
Re Group
Fix errors by………
• Positive thoughts of previous performances
• Visualising better performance
• Using motivational phrases that helped before
Re Focus
• Calm down the situation
• Remember everything that has been done in training
• Clear mind, ready to achieve
Conflict Management
Conflict – Conflict exists when one person
has a need of another and that need is not
being met.
From the pictures above you can see how conflict in
sports happens regularly.
Have you ever been in conflict with a team mate?
How to Resolve Conflict
• A neutral party is brought in to mediate (police the
discussion)
• Rules for the discussion are made
• Both parties must agree to be open, honest and listen to the
other person without interruption.
• Both parties get time to express their views, if they are
providing examples they must be based on facts.
• The mediator then aims to find common ground between the
parties. ‘you both want to win the league, don’t you’
• Mediator then will encourage parties to make concessions to
understand the opposing parties view point and hopefully
comes to an agreement between both parties.
Mental Rehearsal, Rituals &
Routines.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCA6I13aczM
Badminton – Stand in the same spot when serving.
Basketball – Bounce the ball 3 times before a free throw.
Football – Measure three steps back from the ball before a
free kick.
Volleyball – Align the valve on the ball to face your body
before serve.
These rituals can aid, Trust & Happiness. They will also conquer
Fear and Surprise as you will be comfortable in your
environment. However any variation of these could lead to
Anger.

Recently doubting my ability to serve well, 7/10 hit net last game
Subbed when my turn to serve!
Spend time after training on my own
Create a routine of, check left foot just in front of right, bounce
ball 3 times to prepare mind ( what part of ball to hit, which part
of hand to hit with, target). Central hand grip, to left hand under,
align valve to front, throw to shoulder height, curve right hand,
hit centre of the ball.
Do this in a non pressurised environment
Get comfortable, feel skill is at autonomous stage again.
Then record, how many out of 10 land in court etc.
Before serve in game run through routine slowly, focussing on
what my mind is telling me.
(b)
Justification - Approach will allow me to…
• Regain confidence by practising under no
pressure or time constraint.
• Groove skill into mind, get back to autonomous
stage, restore faith in ability.
• Routine will become second nature which can
be performed under pressure.
• Mentally will feel confident, training scores to
prove I can perform the serve to a high
standard.
• Method can be overloaded to increase
pressure, resulting in team mates witnessing
better performance and they will have faith
restored.
Monitoring Emotional Development
• Training Diary - record thoughts and
feelings
• Disciplinary record’s, compare and
contrast
• Questionnaire’s, compare and contrast
• Coach feedback
