Sports coaching is widely recognised as a dynamic and interdisciplinary field that draws upon knowledge from a range of academic and applied disciplines. This complexity is present across all areas of sport, including performance, community, and school-based coaching contexts.
These proceedings are drawn from the fourth Coaching Symposium, following earlier events held in 2019, 2023, and 2024. The inaugural symposium proceedings from 2019 are available via the University of Chichester repository https://eprints.chi.ac.uk/id/eprint/4840/. The symposium series seeks to promote critical discussion and scholarly inquiry within sports coaching, strengthen links between practitioners and academics, and provide a platform for the dissemination of applied coaching practice and research.
These proceedings include the symposium schedule (see poster) and the keynotes abstracts.
