DR. SANMUGANATHAN PENANG, MALAYSIA. Diploma in Physical and Health Education B.A (Hons) History and Political Science MA.ED & PhD in Physical Education and Sports I.A.A.F Level II coach The Effects of Training Programmes using Tactical Model with Different Teaching Styles on Students with Varying Hockey Skills Games are an important component in the Physical Education curriculum and international sports Students with different skill levels have the right to play and upgrade their games performance Games performance is based on ball control, speed and accuracy executing skills, decision making and games knowledge Teaching styles, Learning and Training methods are important to upgrade games performance Background of study TGFU model proven to be effective in decision making, knowledge components. Not much improvement shown in skill execution during game play Spectrum of Mosston & Ashworth Teaching styles (B,E & H) effective in sports especially in skill execution, but no research had been done on ball control, decision making and knowledge components of the game. No research had been done to incorporate TGFU model with Teaching Styles as a form of training programmes for students in hockey. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and sustainabilities of SBT, SET & SHT on boys with different skill levels in speed and accuracy, declarative and procedural knowledge as well as ball control, decision making, skills execution in 3-vs-3 game situation Research Methodology Balanced factorial design with Repeated Measures Samples (225 boys, 12-13 year-old) Pretest performance on speed and accuracy were used to distribute the boys into skill levels (HSB, MSB, LSB) Henry Freidel Field Hockey Test (H.F.F.H.T) Hockey Knowledge Test : 30 multiple choice questions (15 declarative and 15 procedural knowledge) Game Play Observational Instrument were used to measure ball control, decision making and skill execution in 3 versus 3 game situation MANCOVA, ANCOVA (to determine the effectiveness of the three training prog using posttest I) Two-ways Repeated Measures of ANOVA (to determine the sustainabilities of training programmes using posttests I-III) Training Programmes Style B (practice) -Teacher prepares the training lessons and students practice it when they are ready Style E (inclusion) -Teacher prepares training lessons in 3 categories (high, medium and low difficulties) - Give freedom to students to choose the training lesson Style H (Divergent production) -Teacher prepares training lessons based on tactical topic and students solve the tactical problem in game situation TGFU MODEL -Scoring strategy -Defending strategy -Restarting play strategy 6 steps -Game -Game appreciation -Tactical awareness -Making decision -Skill execution -Performance Activities -Warm up -Analyzing tactical topic -Games situation I -Games Situation II + Skill drills -Feedback & Limbering down.

SET suitable as long term training prog for decision making and skill execution SHT suitable as short term training prog for ball control SHT suitable as long term training prog for declarative & procedural knowledge SBT suitable as short term training prog for skill execution and long term declarative knowledge Players need continuous training prog to improve and sustain game performance Future studies could use agility test to select samples or use any other different teaching styles to incorporate with TGFU model THANK YOU
