Abstract
<jats:p>The purpose of the study is to substantiate and experimentally verify the effectiveness of organizational and methodological conditions for teaching tactical-technical skills to 8-9-year-old hockey players based on a situational approach. Research methods and organization. The study involved 8–9-year-old ice hockey players. The duration of the pedagogical experiment was 8 months. The research methods included analysis of scientific and methodological literature, coach surveys, pedagogical testing, and mathematical statistics. The training process in the experimental group incorporated organizational and methodological learning conditions that featured game-based scenarios, a staged formation of orienting and executive action components, and the integration of technical and tactical training elements. Research results and conclusions. The implementation of the proposed conditions contributed to an increase in the accuracy of reproducing the structure of technical techniques and to the improvement of their performance indicators in the training process. It has been established that the use of a situational approach ensures more effective formation of tactical-technical skills through the integration of processes of game situation perception, decision-making, and execution of technical techniques.</jats:p>
