- Motivation
- the external influences and internal mechanisms that arouse and direct our behaviour
- Intrinsic motivation
- the drive that come from within, the need to achieve something for personal satisfaction
- a sense of mastery, a sense of accomplishment
- Extrinsic motivation
- the drive we experience if we are offered an external reward
- Tangible rewards
- rewards that can be touched e.g. medals, trophies, money
- Intangible rewards
- external rewards that cannot be touched
- e.g. cheers from a crowd, congratulations from teammates or coach
- Reasons why intrinsic>extrinsic
- Intrinsic motivation gives performer a sense of control over performance
- (Excessive) extrinsic may reduce/lead to loss of (intrinsic) motivation
- play for prize, not love of game
- Performers demand increasing extrinsic rewards - some rewards unimportant/lose their value
- Failure to achieve extrinsic reward may lead to loss of (intrinsic) motivation - if no reward, give up
- How a coach can motivate players
- make training fun and varied
- use role models for inspiration
- use external rewards
- set goals
