Abstract
Contrary to beliefs that sport coaching is mainly focused on the development of physical ability, skills, and tactical management within the context of performance sport, the role and nature of community sports coaches is more aligned with efforts to respond to various social policy objectives. This being so, community sport coaches need to respond, react, and deliver sessions more aligned with objectives and aims that are predicated upon more personal, individual levels related to psychosocial development and behavioural improvement. However, there is comparably (to traditional, performance sport coaching), more limited evidence outlining and/or extolling possible best practice within the community sport coaching field. This mini-review provides a short overview of the distinctive and complex nature within which community sport coaching operates, and then outlines the findings, and corresponding guidelines, of the author’s previous work related to best practice in the context.
