Abstract

This study examines methodological approaches to developing decision-making speed in 1x1 game situations among 13–15-year-old basketball players. The research is based on the developmental characteristics of tactical thinking and rapid cognitive processing during adolescence. The training process incorporates situational drills, time-constrained tasks, and modeled 1x1 game scenarios aimed at improving players’ ability to quickly analyze game situations and select optimal actions. The proposed methodology is designed to enhance individual offensive efficiency, technical-tactical performance, and psychological confidence. The findings indicate that the implementation of this approach contributes to consistent improvement in competitive performance among young basketball players.
