ABOUT VICKY GOTTWALD
I am a skill acquisition researcher and member of the Institute for Psychology of Elite Performance (IPEP) at Bangor University. My research interests are well aligned with my passion for sports coaching, and I am particularly interested in coaching instruction. More specifically, the way in which verbal instruction can direct an athlete\'s attention and consequently, either enhance or impede motor learning and performance. I am the Talent Identification and Transfer lead for the Welsh Institute for Performance Sciences (WIPS); a three-way partnership between Sport Wales, Wales’ leading academic sport scientists and relevant industry partners to support multi-disciplinary, world-leading, applied performance science projects that enhance the performance of Welsh athletes and businesses.As a UKCC Level 4 basketball coach, I have extensive experience applying skill acquisition related theoretical concepts in practice and have coached across various stages of the Basketball Wales National Team Programmes.
