Professional Advances in Sports Coaching
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-8153-8122-8 (ISBN)
Despite the rapid advance of the academic study of coaching science, there is a dearth of evidence on contemporary progressions within the coaching profession itself, particularly around the wide-ranging challenges that coaches face. Professional Advances in Sports Coaching constitutes an essential collection of the most innovative, up-to-date reviews and research on professional issues in sports coaching and coaching psychology.
Seeking to assess and challenge contemporary conceptual and theoretical research around the evolving nature of the coach’s role, issues associated with athlete and coach welfare, and societal demands of the coach, the book covers topics as diverse as:
gender and spirituality within sports coaching;
working in culturally diverse environments and disability sport;
understanding hazing, mental health issues, and disordered eating in athletes;
moral behaviour and safeguarding;
high performance coaching and talent development;
communicating with athletes in the age of social media, and managing cliques.
Written by leading experts from around the world, every chapter clarifies and defines key concepts, gives an up-to-date and comprehensive review of literature within the area, and examines the implications for future research and applied practice. This is a critical resource for any upper-level student enrolled in sports coaching science or practice classes, sports coaching academics with an interest in professional practice, and practicing sports coaches.
