Technical, physical and mental aspects of coaching (Part 1)

There are 3 aspects to a coach’s duty:

  1. Scouting (work area of one’s own sportsmen/women and that of the opponents)
  2. Training
  3. Coaching matches

The coach trains and coaches the match.
There are important differences between training and match:

Sometimes the gap between training and the match is a wide one.
The coach then has a bridge function between the training and the match. That is why a coach should possess the following competences:

  • High-quality sport-specific and sport-technical skills;

  • Methodic and didactic skills;

  • Influential competences;

  • Task adequate social skills;

  • A good ability to express himself orally and in writing;

  • More than an average general education;

  • Diplomatic skills

  • Representative skills.
