Sport Coaching and Physical Education

Sports coaches used to pick up their skills simply by playing, then passing on their experience. But that’s no longer enough in a world where coaches in tennis, football and cricket have public profiles as high as the players themselves. That’s why on our Sports Coaching and Physical Education course you learn a more ‘professional’ approach by reflecting in an academic way on your practical experiences of coaching practice.
