Effectiveness of a Video-Feedback and Questioning Programme to Develop Cognitive Expertise in Sport Luis Garcı´a-Gonza´lez1* M. Perla Moreno2 Alberto Moreno2 Alexander Gil2 Fernando del Villar2 1 Faculty of Health and Sport Sciences University of Zaragoza Huesca Spain 2 Faculty of Sport Sciences University of Extremadura Ca´ceres Spain Abstract The importance within sport expertise of cognitive factors has been emphasised in many research studies. Adaptations that take place in athletes’ long-term memories are going to condition their decision-making and performance and training programmes must be developed that improve these adaptations. In our study we provide a tactical-cognitive training programme based on video-feedback and questioning in order to improve tactical knowledge in tennis players and verify its effect when transferred to athletes’ decision-making. 11 intermediate tennis players participated in this study (12.960.7 years old) distributed into two groups (experimental n = 5; control n = 6). Tactical knowledge was measured by problem Thomas JR (1989) Relation of knowledge and performance in boys tennis: age and expertise.
