Coaching female athletes is different?Sport Coaching is complex and multi-faceted, and the role of the coach involves an unlimited number of theories and responsibilities. With this, comes a plethora of information on how to coach effectively and what we should be aware of as coaches. Sometimes this information can become 'muddied' and misconstrued. This book aims to unpick some of the key ideas, practices and messages within the domain and determine what credible research has actually concluded.

The book supports an evidence-based practice approach and is an important companion for all those learning through sport and hopefully to reflect critically on the way you operate within your sport. Each chapter contains a QR code to a video from the chapter author and this connection introduces the wonderful people we share this book with and their passion.
