TACTICSFor example:
In basketball you may decide to play zone defencebecause the opposition have inaccurate 3 pointshots. By playing zone defence you are forcing themto shoot from outside the key.
In softball/baseball you would put your team’s bestcatchers at the bases to ensure the ball wouldalways be caught at crucial moments of the game.
In cycling an opponent may tuck in behind theleader in order to reduce the wind resistance actingupon him (slip-streaming). This would mean hewould need to apply such physical effort andtherefore be less tired.
