The more I think about sports decision making the more I believe we have it backwards - its not about reacting fast & taking the best option quickly. Its about acting to keep as many options open for as long as possible until one affordance is more inviting & a decision emerges.

If you treat a movement skill (like a baseball or golf swing) like a fragile piece of glass that you should be incredibly careful with when you finally "get it down",not doing anything to mess with rythym or timing for example, it will invitably break into pieces on you..

โ€œLet the ball be your feedbackโ€. This is exactly what our research shows highly skilled hitters focus their attention on. Furthermore, we find that when you use drills to direct attention to the ball leaving the bat, hitting performance improves.

Key point I like to keep making: All coaching involves constraints manipulation (ie, can be understood in terms of Newell's model). There is nothing else a coach can do! What differs is the goal of the manipulation and the type/severity of the constraints.

..but, if instead, you spend practice trying to break it by adding variability and changing constraints, exagerrating errors and even deliberately trying to do it "wrong" at times, you will get a resilient and adaptable movement made of iron!

Beyond the fact that the action is completely decoupled from its natural perceptual info, why do we care how quickly an infielder can respond to visual stimuli in their far periphery and behind them? In the game, they look directly at the ball! Task analysis, please!

Finally, this approach does not mean letting athlete do whatever they want. It is a transition from the coachโ€™s role from instructor to designer. Think how can I design practice conditions to allow athlete to find solution within bandwidth I want, not give them the solution.

Have heard some claim lately that the ecological approach is insufficient for coaching because it only focuses on motor skill acquisition and ignores other important factors like confidence, motivation, social influences, etc. Thus, mixing theories is required. Simply not true!

Using a self organization approach does not mean there are no wrong movements. It means there is no one ideal one you are going to prescribe. Instead, there is an acceptable range you will let the athlete self organise within to optimally adapt to their own individual constraints

It fits well with Gibson's idea of "acting to perceive". Its "acting to decide". If we can act to keep multiple affordances available (that is, with skilled intentionality) the best course of action, the best "decision", will reveal itself.
