Teaching games through competitive tactical cycles (CTC) framework

This paper shows the Competitive Tactical Cycles (CTC) framework. CTC is a Game Based Approach0F that structures the learning process through instructional cycles guided by a tactical map. Each cycle lasts between three and four sessions and focuses consecutively on two complementary tactical problems or principles and concludes with a competition session. Throughout the cycle, a reference game is used as the main learning activity. In addition, CTC incorporates elements of the Sport Education model to make the learning experience more motivating and meaningful while also contributing to efficient lesson organization and management.
