from Physical Activity Researcher · host paresearcher
Caring relationships in sport coaching have moral and pedagogical value. Researchers have increasingly centralised this idea and explored how coaches develop caring relationships. In this episode, Dr Colum Cronin gives an update on how caring research in coaching has evolved in the last couple of years. Following up on Colum's earlier visit in the podcast, we focus on recent updates in sport coaching research including (1) the new focus on athletes' perspectives on caring and (2) caring for coaches. We also discuss key theoretical ideas on caring that have informed research in the sport domain.

He is the co-editor of the book Care in Sport Coaching: Pedagogical Cases (together with Kathleen Armour). --- Found the episode interesting?
