Abstract
Technology is progressively being used in sports development, with video feedback playing a central role in performance analysis (PA). However, the impact of PA on learning remains unclear. This study aimed to create, validate, and implement a self-controlled PA framework, targeting sports officials who must balance high-performance demands with personal life. The framework was tested as an intervention with two umpires in the 2023 Netball Super League. Results showed improvements in performance scores, suggesting enhanced identification and understanding of umpiring-related factors. Interviews revealed that developmental processes, video feedback, and external life factors significantly influence PA effectiveness. This research highlights the potential of structured PA frameworks to optimise learning and performance in sports officiating.
