<strong>Coaching</strong> Roles<br />

Chapter 3 made the<br />

case for the existence of two<br />

coaching occupations and six<br />

coaching domains contextualised<br />

according to the needs of each<br />

country and sport. When coaching<br />

in one or more domains,<br />

coaches take on roles that require<br />

varying levels of experience and<br />

capability.<br />

Just like athletes, coaches<br />

build up their expertise over<br />

time, and a significant part of<br />

their learning occurs on the job.<br />

Increased experience and capability<br />

are often accompanied by<br />

higher levels of responsibility and<br />

more complex roles. Clarifying<br />

the key roles that coaches may be<br />

asked to play across all domains<br />

is a critical aim of this document,<br />

providing the basis for adoption<br />

and adaptation in specific sports<br />

and nations.<br />
