5. 2.4 work
The following will look at the first two elements of your 2.4 work that you need to start…straight away!
In unit 2.4 you are required to choose your main sport that you are a performer in, you will then complete a detailed
analysis of your participation from a variety of angles. The first two you will complete are:
Your notational analysis
Your training analysis
Your notational analysis on yourself occurs first, you notice from your notation what you need to improve and this is
then put into place in your training analysis.
The training analysis then takes place over 8 weeks with a very detailed evaluation at the end of each session.
Finally, your second notation on yourself is completed at the end of the 8 week training block and you will be able to see
if you improved and comment on that improvement.
Between your first and second notational analysis of yourself you will also look at a top class performer, you will
complete a notation on them (using the same system you will use for yourself).
Therefore, your notation work should include:
Notation introduction explaining what your notation will be looking at and why
Notation 1 on yourself
Notation 1 evaluation & areas you will look to improve from a skill & a fitness perspective
Notation on top class performer
Evaluation of the top class performer – followed by a comparison of them to you!
Notation 2 on yourself (after 8 weeks)
Evaluation of the 2nd notation
Final notation summarising the improvements you have made and reasons behind them
Notations can take many different forms and will differ between sports. You will have to personalise it to your sport so
that you get the most information possible from them.
Training analysis
This is using the same form as your 2.1 sessions; however it is just for one sport. The main focus is that you are
reflecting and evaluating after your sessions. You have to focus on the following main points in each of your evaluations
about each session:
Physiological
Psychological
Technical (technique, how effective is it)
Tactical

Blocking 8 80 2 20
Marking the shot 5 71 2 29
Rebound 0 0 0 0
Contact 1
Obstruction 4
Footwork/Repossession 0
As you can see from my first notation I passed about 8 successful passes, and 3 unsuccessful passes, this gives me a
success rate of approximately 73%. During this game I performed the basic netball passes such as chest passes and
shoulder passes. Also, I tried to make an overall total of 7 interceptions, but only 3 were successful, and I managed to
gain possession of the ball in order for us to get the ball up the court and into the net. Seeing as I played the position of
goal keeper for this match, one of the roles of GK is to mark the shot of the person shooting. This is an area of strength
for me as I have a very long reach, you can identify this strength by looking at my results table where I was 80%
successful at marking the shot, this therefore prevented the shooter from scoring goals, and so this gave us an
advantage. However, after marking the shot I failed to win any rebounds, which sometimes led to us losing the ball.
Blocking is another vital part of being a GK, if the shooter comes out of the circle, the GK must block her from coming
back in again, and shooting. As you can see from my table I managed to successfully block the shooter 5 times. As for
fouls during this game, I committed an overall of 5 fouls. 4 of which were for obstruction, where I was too close when
marking a player, this will be an area of which I should improve. Overall, by reviewing this table and looking at what I
was successful and unsuccessful at, I can begin to draw conclusions and define what my strengths and weaknesses are.
After fitness training in these specific areas of improvement, hopefully my next notational analysis on myself will have
improved.

7. Training Analysis
Introduction:
From my self analysis in the Notational Sector I have Fitness Test Result (Average)
deduced the aspects of training that I could focus on which
would help me to improve my performance overall, in
Sit and Reach Test 27
competition and generally. The ones that I selected to target
would be flexibility, as it seems to me that flexibility helps Sit Up Bleep Test 8.5
a rider stay supple and balanced and also muscular Standing Stork 22 seconds
endurance as I have noticed fatigue in previous Hand Grip 26
competitions and lessons and wish to become more Ruler Drop 15
enduring. I tested myself in the components of fitness (see
table at end of page and results table; right) as the majority of my results were average I aim to improve
it to a standard of excellence or above average.
Why?
I wish to improve my riding technique generally and I want to ensure the efficiency of my performance
in competitions. If increasing my fitness and the components, such as reaction time to see a stride and
then muscular strength to collect and hold the horse under control, will help me then I want to be able
to improve.
How?
I plan to follow training sessions such as circuit training circuits which can focus on all the components
I wish to improve (mainly muscular endurance and flexibility) but also I can isolate one component and
work solely to develop that around the whole body. This would be very useful for flexibility and
muscular endurance as horse riding uses core strength and arm muscle endurance. I will also follow an
8 week program which is done on horseback and although this improves me and the horse’s
components it will come in very useful and be noticeable in competitions.
Goals
In my final fitness testing I hope to be above average or excellent. I will then in my final notation see if
the results have paid any assistance and improved my performance.
Example as to how you may structure your
training analysis introduction. Information
will come from fitness tests and your
notation.

8. Session review: Session review:
Strengths Weaknesses
1. Splits were better this week than last 1. Began to fatigue the second time around
week, slightly further down
2. Second time round I put my knees on the floor
2. Bicep Curls were quick and efficient during my push ups as I was very tired and my arms
were slightly aching.
3. Lunges were strong and consistent for the
full time frame 3. Need to make lunges slightly harder so plan to use
weights on this circuit next time
Evaluation: (Goal Setting/Targets)
1. Physiological - This session focused mainly on my flexibility and muscular endurance as well as
core strength in activities such as the plank. I was working at an aerobic energy level but fatigued
quite quickly due to the decrease in resting time in between each station.
2. Psychological - I felt that this session tested my body’s ability to rest quickly and to recover
quickly I was quite focused and hard working and left feeling relaxed.
3. Tactical – Iwould apply this in a competition by flexibility to allow movement in balance with
the horse and core strength to maintain centre of balance and stability. Muscular endurance would
also play a key feature as all the muscles are working against a high force over a period of time.
4. Technical – In this session I used all of my antagonistic muscle pairs as the quadriceps and
hamstrings, abdominals and spinal erectors, shins and calves, biceps and triceps and forearm
flexors and extensors all feature as needed for the movements being performed.
5. Overall from this session I think that I worked myself at a higher level and will continue to
keep the timing of each station and rest station the same as I don’t want to fatigue too much
and I feel this is enough to efficiently train for horse riding as a sport.

9. Tactical analysis
This piece of work is an all-encompassing look at how you approach your sport from a tactical perspective.
You have an opportunity to show all your in depth knowledge of your sport and analyse how you play compared to elite
performers.
This piece of work is to be completed as a word document, not as a PowerPoint. You can still include pictures as
necessary to demonstrate different strategies you or your team may employ.
You need to include the following:
Definition of tactics & strategies, including the differences between them
Rules of your sport
Positions (where applicable), any specific rules due to positions
Aspects of attacking play
Aspects of defensive play These are the biggest areas of the work; go into as much depth as
Set plays (where applicable) possible.
Tactics / strategies when losing Always refer to your own team’s tactics / strategies throughout
Tactics / strategies when winning
Tactics against a particularly strong opposition
Personal tactics you may try to employ in your overall performance
Tactics in different weather environments (where applicable)
Tactics / strategies compared to a particular elite team e.g. England
Physical conditioning (somatotypes in your positions, when type of training you would have to undertake,
components of fitness you should focus on, how you should approach your nutritional aspects)
This is not an exhaustive list, if you have more to add then make sure you do so.
