KIDMOVE - Athlete Centered Coaching Practices

Abstract

The most common reasons for young athletes to participate in sporting activities are having fun, experiencing enjoyment, improving new skills, getting a sense of belonging and receiving the support needed. This publication provides free and easily accessible athlete-centered coaching practices for the grassroots junior sports coaches. Feel free to use what we have learned and the tips and tricks that we share in your own organisation.

This publication has been made in the international KidMove – athlete centered coaching practices project (2019–2020) co-funded by the Erasmus+ Sport Programme of the European Union.
