Description
Laterality in Sports: Theories and Applications summarizes recent research on the neurophysiological foundations of handedness, and how left or right lateralization (affecting primary hand use, foot use, and eye use) affects motor control, performance outcome, skill acquisition, and achievement of sports expertise—both for one-on-one sports and team sports.
As laterality research has matured, greater focus has been given to applications in human endeavours and, in particular, sport.
The book examines performance within individual sports, and discusses the coaching ramifications of coaching to a specific lateralization preference.
