Adventure Sports Coaching was the first book to link contemporary sports coaching science with adventure sports practice and examine the unique set of challenges faced by adventure sports coaches, such as the dynamic natural environment and the requirement to train athletes to levels of high performance outside of traditional structures of competition, and explore both key theory and best practice.
This new and fully updated edition reflects the increased wealth of empirical work and practical guidance in areas such as technology, techniques and risk management developed over the last ten years. The book covers major topics such as
Skill acquisition and skill development
Models of learning and teaching
Performance analysis
Tactics and decision making
Training principles
Mental skills techniques
Goal setting and progression
Risk management
Each chapter contains applied examples from a range of adventure sports, including mountaineering, rock climbing, canoeing, kayaking, surfing and winter sport, as well as practical coaching techniques and a guide to further reading. Written by a team of authors with wide experience in coaching, teaching, researching and high-performance participation in adventure sports, this book is invaluable reading for any student or practitioner with an interest in adventure, outdoor education, sports coaching or lifestyle sport.
