Sport Coaching

About this course

Sport coaching is the practice of supporting and developing athletes and sports participants at every level, from community beginners to elite performers. It is a discipline grounded in the science of skill acquisition, physiology, psychology, and performance analysis, but it is also a relational and communicative art, requiring coaches to understand the people they work with and to adapt their approach to different individuals, groups, and contexts. The best coaches combine evidence-based practice with professional judgement, drawing on a deep understanding of both sport and human development. At Robert Gordon University this two-year programme is designed for those progressing from HND study in sport coaching or a related area, providing a grounding in the theoretical and practical dimensions of contemporary coaching through an applied approach.
