Book Care in Sport Coaching

Download or read book Care in Sport Coaching written by Colum Cronin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it is accepted that sport coaches should safeguard participants, Care in Sport Coaching: Pedagogical Cases argues that coaches have a duty of care that moves beyond protection and involves the development of caring relationships with athletes. Recent high-profile incidents of abuse in sport highlight the need to reposition coaching as a caring activity and to embed care within coach education and coaching policy. Based around extended case studies, this book provides grounded accounts of how coaches care in their everyday practice. These case studies are analysed using multidisciplinary theoretical perspectives to illustrate and problematise how coaches care. Conclusions are provided, based on these analyses, that will help coach educators, researchers and policy makers establish care as a key facet of everyday sport coaching activities. Additionally, the book offers guidelines that will aid practitioners to enact care in their practice. This is important reading for coaches, researchers, lecturers and students who are concerned with the role of coaches and the development of coaching practice.

Book The Athlete and Coach Welfare

Download or read book The Athlete and Coach Welfare written by Marvin Namanda and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2018 in the subject Sport - Sport Economics, Sport Management, grade: 94, La Trobe University Melbourne, course: PHES ACW, language: English, abstract: It took me some times to become the club welfare officer of this great club, Malvern Magic Soccer club. The most important steps includes; attending the FA safeguarding children welfare officer workshops, and by having an in-date FA accepted enhanced with children’s baring list. The two are crucial in understanding the basics of young athletes and their needs. After the certification as the welfare officer, the following two main roles are under my care; to be clear about the clubs responsibilities when running activities for young athletes such medication and transportation, and help club personnel in understanding their duty of care towards the athletes on what means and entails on a daily basis. Conceptualization states that the coach–athlete relationship can be defined based on the behaviors coaches and athletes manifest on the sport field. Based on the case study, Michael who is an athlete and Bill the team coach have an un-effective relationship driven from both Michael’s perceptions towards the coach and vice versa. Bill feels that as much as Michael uniquely talented and having self-confidence in the field, Michael does not respect him, not sure to trust him, and he is not honest. Self-determination theory tries to explain both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation of the athletes towards team’s success. Basing on the characteristics of Michael, it can be concluded that he has introversion personalities. Introverts tends to be more quiet, reserved, and introspective. Developing cultural competence is a process in which an athletic trainer learns to appreciate and respect cultural differences and take them into consideration in order to care for patients in a culturally congruent manner. Introvert disorders can be remedied in various ways. The easiest and most convenient approaches that could be recommended for Michael are; encourage Michael to explore and talk things out; this way, he will have less things to think about and much of the information on what is affecting him will be known to the immediate people surrounding him. Secondly, this report recommends Michael to seek doctor’s advice in order for him to learn how to control himself when he is in a group of people. It is important for Michael to make some efforts of socializing with other team members and the family members such as Peter and Judy so that they can understand what he needs and advise him accordingly.

  • ISBN : 1441224882
  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book 3D Coach written by Jeff Duke and published by Revell. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than 60 million athletes involved in sports in America, it is estimated that one coach will impact more people in one year than the average person does in a lifetime. Today's coach could be one of the greatest authoritative figures in the life of today's adolescent. So the question isn't whether coaches leave a legacy, but rather, what will that legacy be? Current trending research shows that only 15% of coaches are intentional about coaching beyond the skills and strategies of the game (1st Dimension). A 3-Dimensional Coach understands and harnesses the power of the coaching platform to coach the mind (2nd Dimension) and transform the heart (3rd Dimension). They can be the catalysts for internal transformation that guides both the coach and the athlete on a spiritual journey to finding purpose in our performance-based culture. Now that's a legacy! In 3D Coach, National Coaches Training Director Jeff Duke shares his own journey through the three dimensions of coaching and how it has impacted his life and those around him. He also shares the personal stories of coaches from all levels who have implemented the 3D concept into their own programs and who have pointed to Jesus Christ, the Master Coach, as the ultimate example of how to lead athletes to true significance.

Book Athletic care for Coaches

Download or read book Athletic care for Coaches written by Stephanie Fall and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of student-athletes of all age ranges participate in a variety of athletic activities each year in the United States. Participating in athletic activities offers a wide range of health benefits, including physical, social, and psychological, but is accompanied by athletic-related injuries and conditions. Injury potential indicates the need for implementation of effective prevention strategies and increased care quality available to student-athletes. In the absence of certified athletic trainers, coaches assume the responsibility to provide appropriate healthcare. Coaches need the knowledge and skills necessary to provide the care for which they are held responsible. The Athletic-Care for Coaches clinic presents knowledge, develops skills, and builds understanding of basic first-aid care for athletic-related injuries and conditions, providing an opportunity for continued advancement in care by coaches. Topics presented in the clinic remain within scope of practice of a basic first-aid provider and include: a coach's role; injury prevention, recognition, and management; return-to-play criteria; universal precautions; lighting safety; equipment; and emergency action plan development. The purpose of the clinic is to assist coaches in making safe, objective decisions regarding the care of student-athletes. After completion, coaches should be able to implement prevention strategies, and recognize and manage athletic-related injuries and conditions.
