| Becoming a Better Sports Coach: Development through Theory Application Subjects: Sports and Leisure; Sports Coaching; Physical Education; Coaching Practice; Coaching Science; Coaching Theory; Talent Identification; Sport Education; Research on coaching education and development highlights, repeatedly, the difficulties of traditional coaching education to impact coaching practice. Practice seems to be disconnected from scientific theory with few coaches accessing the scientific literature as it too often is presented in dry, academic tones. This volume sets out to provide an integration of theory and everyday practice that to date has not yet been published in the field of coaching science in a text easily used by sports coaches.
