Advances in Coach Education and Development: From research to practice

This book highlights the latest advances in coach education and development through collaborative research co-ordinated by the English Football Association, the only national governing body of sport to run a coaching research programme. It presents the first set of studies generated by this programme that display how research has informed policy and practice within the FA. Each chapter includes sections that examine current issues, suggest considerations for other governing bodies and pose key questions. Bringing together a unique set of studies covering every level of football, this book is essential reading for any serious sports coaching student, researcher or coach educator.
