Abstract

The acquisition of motor skills involves learning, memory, and transfer as well as attention. The aspects of motor control most relevant for everyday practice are the conditions of practice, the knowledge of results, and the assessment of athletes to identify talented performers. The optimal conditions for practice and methods for developing a test battery for use in a sports tryout are discussed.
