It provides a wealth of real-world examples and up-to-date case studies from a wide range of sports to support the developing practitioner and help sports coaches understand how to apply key concepts and theories to their practice.In addition, there are countless practical coaching tips, techniques and strategies to further support sports coaches in their practice and development.
