Using Gentile's Taxonomy for Task Modification to Support Teaching and Learning in a Sport Setting

This workshop equips sport coaches with practical strategies to apply Gentile’s Taxonomy of Motor Skills when teaching learners of varied skill levels. Participants will explore how task complexity, environmental conditions, and learner needs influence skill acquisition. Through hands‑on activities and real coaching scenarios, coaches will learn to design effective practice progressions, and enhance athlete development across beginner to advanced levels.
