Introduction: Skills, knowledge and expertise in sport -- 1. The role of skill in sport -- 2. Skills - do we really know what kind of knowledge they are? -- 3. On phenomenological and logical characteristics of skilled behaviour in sport: cognitive and motor intentionality -- 4.

What can the parkour craftsmen tell us about bodily expertise and skilled movement? -- 7. Expert tool use: a phenomenological analysis of processes of incorporation in the case of elite rope skipping -- 8. Gamechangers and the meaningfulness of difference in the sporting world - a postmodern outlook.
Summary: "Taking part in a sport means that one must acquire the relevant skills: mental, physical and strategic. This book presents a new perspective on the role of skills, knowledge and intentionality in sporting contexts, examining how these skills and practical 'know how' can be perfected to a level of expertise. Contributors study broader trends of how we can best understand the role of skills, as well as using case studies of expertise to add depth and nuance to existing scholarship. This book was originally published as a special issue of Sport, Ethics and Philosophy."--Provided by publisher.
