Exploring Terminology and Practice Environments in Sports Coaching

Carl Woods PhD is a Senior Research Fellow at Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia. He also works with high performance sports teams as a coach and consultant with his main focus sport being Aussie Rules Football.

In this conversation we explore a range of issues related to how ecological principles can be used and adopted and applied by coaches. The range of subjects include...

- Why coaches need to have a good grasp if what they are doing and why they are doing it
- The difference between 'knowledge of' and 'knowledge about' sport and why that is essential for coaches to understand
- How technology can seriously undermine skill acquisition
- How to design learning environments using 'fishtanking'

It is an extremely rich and varied conversation.
