Case Studies in Sport Coaching and Development: Practice Meets Theory
Editat de Christine Nash, Melissa Thompsonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 ian 2026
Grounded in a case study framework, this textbook incorporates rich descriptions of real events as an approach to exploring the problems of practice in coaching. It includes multiple approaches to problems that are largely contextually specific, and it includes the corresponding literature to allow for a deeper exploration of the connection between theory and practice. The book’s seven sections explore key themes, such as building environments, relationships among people involved in coaching, coaching philosophy, and long-term goals. Each chapter includes questions for further discussion.
Case Studies in Sport Coaching and Development is a key textbook for both undergraduate and postgraduate students of sport coaching, sport coaching development and education as well as practicing sport coaches, coach developers, and organizations.

"The practice-theory gap has for years been highlighted as one of the key issues in coaching research and coach development.
