ABSTRACT
It is not possible to trace the work of all those coaches and sports scientists who have contributed in one way or another to notational analysis. A large number of these innovative people did not see the point of publishing the work that they did, regarding it as merely part of their job and consequently cannot receive the just acclaim that they deserve here in this compilation. There is no doubt that all the published workers mentioned within the following chapter could cite five or six other ‘unsung’ innovators who, either introduced them into the field, or gave them help and advice along the way.
