Sports training & coaching

This groundbreaking coaching studies text offers a 'coaches eye' view of coaching focusing on the coach as a person, and coaching practice as a complex social encounter. Fascinating interviews with 8 leading international sports coaches from a range of team and individual sports including football, rugby, swimming and athletics form the basis for subsequent exploration of key themes in sports coaching.
