Exploring participants’ experiences of Play to Lead, a leadership development program for adolescent girls in sport
The present research highlights the relevance of adopting an experiential learning approach in a leadership development program for adolescent girls that provides structure, choice, and opportunities to practice leadership
Voices
Qualitative researchers in the social sciences have been benefitting from using poetic forms to analyse and represent their research findings for about two decades now and, while still not common, recently noted that sensory research has made a debut in sport. In line with Fitzgerald’s recommendation that voice be given to young people living with disabilities, the following poems were co-constructed from the words of 15 parasport athletes from 1…
Cultivating focus
Yoga has demonstrated some promising impacts on mental health and well-being. The ability to focus is a possible mechanism through which yoga practice influences mental health and well-being. Furthermore, there are relatively few empirical studies that have explored the experience of maintaining focus or the process of developing this capacity within yoga. This study explored focus in terms of its development within the practice of yoga. The two …
The Lived Experience of a Doctoral Student
The PhD experience is often a transition from student to future faculty member, which involves considerable learning and development (Glaze, 2002; Hockey, 2004). Using a lifelong learning perspective (Jarvis, 2009), the purpose of this article is to explore, through a reflective self-study, my process of learning throughout the PhD degree. In this qualitative self-study, I kept a detailed personal, professional, and academic reflective journal ov…
Exploring coaching actions based on developed values
There are few empirical studies that demonstrate how values are developed and how they are linked to coaching actions. There can be a discrepancy between the statement of coaches’ values and their actual coaching actions. In order to examine how coaching actions are influenced by values that are developed over a lifetime, the purpose of this article is to first describe a female hockey coach’s approach to coaching using five key coaching actions,…
How meaningful episodic experiences influence the process of becoming an experienced coach
The research on coach learning and development deals with the classification of the sources from which coaches learn, and more recently, with the identification of learning being an idiosyncratic process in which there are variations in coaches’ learning paths. From a constructivist view, learning may be seen as a process of becoming: a person engages in social situations throughout life that are transformed cognitively, emotively and/or practica…
Coaches of athletes with a physical disability
Although coaching has become a popular area for research, little is known about coaches of athletes with a disability (Cregan et al., 2007; DePauw & Gavron, 1991, 2005). The purpose of this study was to explore how disability sport coaches learnt to coach and, more specifically, how they learnt through interactions. Recent disability sport research has revealed that coaches work with their athletes to enhance their learning (Cregan et al., 2007; …
