Coaching Styles
There are perhaps three coaching styles - autocratic (do as I say), democratic (involve the athletes in decision making) and laissez faire. The autocratic style could be broken into two types - telling and selling and the democratic style into sharing and allowing. There is little direction from a "Laissez fair" coaching style as this style allows the group to do what they want to. Coaches will use a variety of coaching styles depending on the coaching situation.
Autocratic Style - Telling
When using the Telling style the coach:
• decides on what is to be done
• defines what to do and how to do it
On a circuit training session, the athletes are told the exercises in the circuit.
Circuit Training
Circuit training is an excellent way to improve mobility, strength and stamina. The circuit training comprises of 6 to 10 strength exercises that are completed one exercise after another. Each exercise is performed for a specified number of repetitions or for a set time before moving on to the next exercise. The exercises within each circuit are separated by a short rest period, and each circuit is separated by a longer rest period. The total number of circuits performed during a training session may vary from two to six depending on your training level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced), your period of training (preparation or competition) and your training objective.
Autocratic Style - Selling
When using the Selling style the coach:
• decides on what is to be done
• explains what is required and the objectives
• ask the athlete questions to confirm understanding
• defines what to do and how to do it
On a circuit training session, the athletes are informed of the exercises in the circuit. The coach explains the object of circuit training and the purpose of each exercise. Athletes can ask questions to clarify any points.
Democratic Style - Sharing
When using the Sharing style the coach:
• outlines the training requirements to the athletes
• invites ideas/suggestions from the athletes
• makes the decision based on the athletes' suggestions
• defines what to do and how to do it
The coach identifies a circuit training session. Athletes identify possible exercises for the circuit. The coach selects from the suggestions a set of exercises.
Democratic Style - Allowing
• The coach outlines the training requirements to the athletes
• The coach defines the training conditions
• The athletes brainstorm to explore possible solutions
• The athletes make the decision
• The athletes define what to do and how to do it
The coach identifies a circuit training session. The coach defines the conditions of the circuit to ensure it is safe and meets the overall objectives of the session. Athletes identify possible exercises for the circuit and then select a set of exercises that meet the coach's conditions.
B. Woods Coaching Styles
B. Woods (1998)[1] identified 4 styles of coaching:
• Command style - direct instruction, coach dictates
• Reciprocal style - athlete takes some responsibility for their own development - monitored by the coach
• Problem solving style - athlete solves problems set by the coach
• Guided discovery - athlete has freedom to explore various options
British Athletics Coaching Styles
British Athletics identify the following coaching styles:
• Telling - primarily the coach use instruction and explaining
• Showing - primarily the coach use demonstration
• Involving - primarily the coach allows self discovery and questioning to raise the athlete's awareness
Coaching Roles and Skills
The United Kingdom Coaching Strategy describes the role of the sports coach as one that "enables the athlete to achieve levels of performance to a degree that may not have been possible if left to his/her own endeavours".
Dyson speaking to the 19th session of the International Olympic Academy, Greece 1979, widened the horizon when he said that "the wise coach develops not only the fullest physical potential in his charges, but also those capacities and habits of mind and body which will enrich and ennoble their later years".
I also believe the role of the sports coach is to create the right conditions for learning to happen and to find ways of motivating the athletes. Most athletes are highly motivated and therefore the task is to maintain that motivation and to generate excitement and enthusiasm.
The role of the coach could be quite daunting since the above implies what could be construed as quite awesome responsibility, especially for the part-time non-professional.
