1. PPL 4O Unit 4 Interpersonal Skill Building

2. Unit 1 Concepts Personal Strategy vs Team Strategy Recreational Activity vs Sport Activity Coaching Styles Tournament Building Refereeing Conflict Resolution

3. Personal vs. Team Strategy Personal Use your best qualities for success Organize yourself appropriately for each style of game Team Use your team qualities for the success of the whole team Coaches organize the team and use their qualities

4. Apply these concepts : When organizing for your leading days you need to take into consideration: the personal qualities of individuals in this class How to build teams so you will have individual leaders on each Who will you turn to for assistance in team situations

5. Recreational Activity vs. Sport Activity Recreational Activity More fun focused Inclusion oriented No score kept or stats recorded Many different levels of players can be involved Sport Activity More competitive focused Typically a more select group of players Score recorded, qualified officials, statistics often monitored

6. Apply this concept: When selecting your activity you need to keep in mind these types and the class you have. For our purposes you can select a combination of the two if you think it would work better for our class.

7. Coaching Styles Authoritarian (brick wall) – Sets the rules without necessary considering the players Permissive (jelly fish) – Lets the players dictate the rules rather than themselves Authoritative (backbone) – Flexible to listen, but also stays in control of the players

8. Factors That Affect Coaching Participants Fans, parents, observers Media Referees

9. Types of Tournaments 1.Round Robin 2.Double Elimination 3.Single Elimination 4.Challenge a)Ladder b)Pyramid c)Funnel d)Spider Web e)Round-the-clock

10. Round Robin Tournament Provides the opportunity for a number of teams in a league to play against one another Advantage: equal number of games for all teams Disadvantages: takes a great deal of time

11. Double Elimination Involves a schedule in which teams or individuals must lose twice before they are eliminated from the event. Advantage: guaranteed minimum of two games for each player and a shortened game schedule. Disadvantage: participation is reduced by having a limit of two losses

12. Single Elimination Tournament Events in which players or teams are eliminated after one loss. Best suited to events where ability level has been pre-determined and participants are well matched. Advantages: quick tournament when time does not allow for a long schedule Disadvantages: most participants have very limited opportunities to play

13. Challenge Tournament Best suited for events which can run over an extended period of time. Their purpose is to encourage participants to challenge one another, and if successful, to move ahead on a ladder or pyramid. Advantage: can establish ability levels in preparation for other types of tournaments Disadvantage: after initial play and changing of positions, the number of challenges usually decreases, leading to fewer games for all participants.

14. Challenge: Ladder Players are placed on the ladder through random selection or according to ability (Sometimes it is a good idea to place the better players at the bottom of the ladder to encourage greater movement on the ladder) A player advances by defeating another player one or two places higher on the ladder The winning player changes positions with the losing player. If the challenger loses, the positions on the ladder remain the same. The losing challenger cannot issue a re-challenge intil they have played against another player.

15. Challenge Tournament: Pyramid Similar to ladder The difference: a player must win at least one game on his or her row before challenging a player in a higher row.

16. Challenge Tournament: Funnel Combination of ladder and pyramid tournaments. Provides for numerous entries The top 4 places are selected in order of ability Players attempt to advance to the top of the upside down funnel

17. Challenge Tournament: Spider Web Also know as the hexagon Conducted according to the rules of the pyramid tournament. The objective is to advance to the center and to hold that position. Disadvantage: the player in the middle must accept numerous challenges from the 6 outside the hexagon. To reduce some of the pressure on this player, a rule requiring players to play someone on their own level before permitting them to challenge the center position could be enforced.

18. Challenge Tournament: Round-the Clock Participants are placed at each hour position on the clock face Rules may be set with one of two objectives for the winner; the winner is the player who advances in a clockwise direction and is in the 12 o’clock position at the end of the regulation time, or the winner is the first player to make one complete revolution around the clock back to his or her original starting position. The big hand indicates the winning hour position.

19. Factors that Affect Tournament Building Environmental conditions (weather) Facility Conditions (location, availability, access, equipment) Participants, teams, coaches/leaders Observers, fans, media

20. Refereeing A referee is a person, or group of people who officiate the game through best judgments of violations/infractions of rules, laws and regulations Computers and videos have become a huge asset for referees.

21. Factors that Affect Refereeing Changes in rules, regulations (clear understanding of rules and regs) Participants Coaches Observers, fans, media

22. Conflict Resolution Definition: The process of ending a problem (conflict) by cooperating and problem-solving Types of conflict: Interpersonal (disagreements between groups of any size), Internal (struggles within yourself)

23. Conflict Resolution Tactics Respect – an essential element to resolving positively Rights – Having respect means not violating other people’s basic rights (no one has the right to control or harm another or destroy property; right to privacy..) Responsibility – take responsibility for your actions (do not just blame the other person, look at your part, make responsible decisions that involve all parties) Tolerance- accepting others’ differences and allowing them to be who they are without expressing disapproval Negotiation – using compromise to reach agreement Mediation – using a third party to help reach an agreement

24. Evaluation We have seen aspects of these topics throughout the course… 1.In pre-assigned groups complete: Pre- planning question sheet 2.Complete assessment of a pre-selected peer group using an evaluation rubric given to you by teacher. 3.Organize and run a 2 day tournament of the activity of your choice.
