We aim to promote and support research concerning the socio-pedagogic considerations of sport coaching

Who We Are

The Cluster for Research into Coaching aims to promote and support research for the benefit of sport coaches, National Governing Bodies, non-Governmental Organisations, sport coaching scholars, students and other related practitioners.

• CRiC welcomes work utilizing qualitative, quantitative and/or mixed methodologies, in addition to discussions of conceptual issues related to sport coaching research.
• CRiC believes research must be informed by a theoretical perspective, whilst written in such a way as to be accessible to the broad community of sport coaching scholars.
• A principal objective of CRiC is to promote and support interrogative research which engender debate on issues related to sport coaching theory and practice - for example, the power relations, the learning context[s], the psychological and social complexity, and the discourse, interactions and exchanges evident in coaching relations and networks.
