- To help continue to acclaimed athletes to the use of the OODA Loop posters
- Improve “scanning for objects” while in motion. This is far more difficult than when stationary
- Continue to improve players skill in stage 1 – “Observation” and stage 2 – “Orientation” of the OODA Loop.
- Improve “Visual field” horizontally and vertically between 2 or more posters
- Improve “Maintaining a stable image on the retina”
- Improve “Soft” to “Fine” focus vision training
- Improve visual focus over other senses and thinking
