E-book Sports Training Principles
Coaching is mainly an art and, like the artist, the coach must have two attributes. The first is creative flair, that marriage of aptitude and passion which enables him to draw an athlete’s dream towards realisation. The athlete, moved to express himself within a social mosaic, chooses to do so in pursuit of competitive excellence in sport. The coach creates order and direction for that expression. The second attribute is technical mastery of the instruments and materials used. The athlete is the instrument and the material with which the coach works. Structurally, he is a system of levers, given movement by the pull of muscle, and obedient to the laws of physics. Functionally, he is a dynamic integration of adaptive systems. But more than that, he is a reasoning being.
