This must be related to the Mental Factor.Factor – MentalSub-Factor – SeveralActivity – VolleyballMethod of Data Collection – Performance WheelBelow are various descriptive points that could be included in your answer to access marks to the above question:Describe how you completed…the Performance Wheel.What – A Performance Wheel is a self-evaluation tool used to identify which mental sub-factors are strengths and which are areas of development, within my volleyball performance.Who – A performance wheel is often filled in by athletes who are looking to identify their mental strengths and weaknesses within their performance.Who – I filled the performance wheel in as part of my individual development plan.Who – My coach asked all players within the team to fill in a performance wheel as part of our team development plan.Where – A performance wheel should ideally be completed in a quiet place such as a changing room or briefing room.Where – I filled in the performance wheel in the changing room where it was quiet.Where – Our coach asked all players to complete their performance wheels at home.When – A performance wheel should, where possible, be completed after a competitive volleyball performance.When – I completed the performance wheel before, and at the end of, my Personal Development Plan.When – All players were asked to complete the performance wheel later that day after we had taken part in a competitive volleyball match.How – I completed the Performance Wheel by clearly labelling each section of the wheel with a mental sub-factor. These included concentration, level of arousal, decision-making and motivation to name but a few.How – I had to decide where I felt my performance for each sub-factor sat on the wheel.How – I marked each sub-factor according to the numbers in each section. The further out I marked, the more competent I felt I had performed the higher I marked the segment. For example, I marked motivation as a ‘9’ as I had a strong desire to perform well for the team.How – The further out towards the outer edge of the circle I marked, the stronger or more competent I was with that specific sub-factor. The closer to the middle of the circle I marked, the weaker or less competent I was.How – Within each section, I also marked down how a model performer would rate themselves within each of the eight mental sub-factors.Describe how you…identified your strengths and weaknesses from, the Performance Wheel.How - After I had completed all eight sections of the Performance Wheel, I identified my area of development (weakness) as the sub-factor that was ranked the lowest around the wheel.How – After I had completed the Performance Wheel, I identified mental toughness as one of my strengths. This sub-factor was marked as a ‘9’ along with motivation which was another strength within my volleyball performance. These were the two highest marked sub-factors around the wheel.How – After I had completed all eight sections of the Performance Wheel, I compared my sub-factors to that of the model performers.How – I identified that confidence was my area of development when I noticed that this sub-factor was marked 5 points below that of my role model (10).How – I identified which sub-factors were my strengths and weaknesses by visually comparing which sub-factors had been marked higher and which had been marked lower around the wheel.How – I identified my strengths and weaknesses by visually comparing the differences between my sub-factor competency and my role models. ................
