Sport Coaching Concepts (eBook, ePUB)

A framework for coaching practice

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Sport Coaching Concepts was the first textbook to offer a comprehensive introduction to the theoretical issues that underpin sports coaching practice. Now in a fully revised and updated new edition, this book explains why a conceptual approach to sports coaching is more important than ever before, using practice-orientated analysis to help students develop a full understanding of coaching theory and technique. Also included are six completely new chapters on the evolution of coaching theory, coaches' expertise, decision-making, social perspectives on the coach-athlete relationship, social inclusion, and principles of coach development.

Rezensionen

"Drawing on more than a decade's worth of research reflecting the profound changes that have transformed coach education and development. For me, it certainly captures the significant theoretical issues that underpin contemporary sport-coaching practice ... An essential read for students of sports coaching and any serious coaches looking to develop their own coaching practice", Laura Gale, Sports Coaching Review
