QUALITY OF PERFORMANCE
FLUENCY
Definition
Fluency is regarded as the smoothness or flow in which actions/movements are joined together to perform one skill or multiple skills together with ease and grace.
Impact on Performance
A badminton player needs to link the subroutines of the overhead clear together in order to complete the action efficiently and smoothly (fluently) – being able to track back underneath the shuttle, turn side on, transfer weight, swing arm quickly to hit the shuttle and return to base. Performing actions with fluency will make them appear automatic and natural.
A team performance may also relate to being ‘fluent’ in their style of play- the ability to link passes, dribble at speed and move off the ball in an efficient, flowing movement. Progressing with ease and grace from one end of the pitch/court to the other.
