TRAINING FOR DECISION-MAKING AFTER SPORTS ORIENTATION COMPETITIONS

Abstract

The result of the competitor’s orientation consists of various factors, which mutually influence each other
and turn out to the foreground in the specific conditions. For effective management it is necessary to highlight the main factors that ultimately determine sports success and do not duplicate each other. In the decisionmaking process, alternatives to decisions are formed and their advantage is estimated. This involves an integrated assessment of the quality of decisions, based on objective analysis (knowledge, experience, conducting calculations) and subjective understanding of the value, efficiency of the decisions. In sports orientation, it is important “to run faster than to think”. In other words, the crucial issue is the ability to make decisions when passing a course. Such a statement poses special requirements for the training of athletesorienteers. Therefore, each trainer must arrange and control the training of athletes throughout the annual cycle; to engage in training planning with an athlete.
In the decision-making process, alternatives to decisions are formed and their advantage is estimated.
Under this term, an integrated assessment of the quality of decisions is based on objective analysis (knowledge, experience, conducting calculations) and a subjective understanding of the value, efficiency of the decisions. Sport orientation has a number of features. One of them is that physical activity is combined with intellectual activity on an equal footing. The complexity of tasks is determined not only by the number of elements of the set of information contained in them. It is determined by the behavior of rivals, judges, spectators, character of the route, weather, inventory. And all this must be taken into account when deciding athletes’ training. The necessity of training in the decision-making of athletes-orienteers during the competitions are substantiates in the article.
Key words: sport orientation, decision-making
