questions
1: Could we expand on the difference between Lyle's coaching process and Hanrahan's and Kidman's model.
Lyle's model 'acknowledges external constraints and recognises the coaching process as a set of interpersonal relationships that are set out to contextual factors and exist within a cultural dimension" (Cushion et al., 2006, p. 88).
Hanrahan and Kidman (2010, pp. 3–4) talk more about the coaches influence on the player and how the success of the coach depends on how they develop their own skills to meet the athlete's needs. They emphasis “that the coaches’ responsibility is to communicate a positive philosophy to athletes that will help them achieve their goals” (2010, p. 16).
2: in your podcast Chrisitne you mentioned that you questioned sport without competition, could we discuss this a bit further. There are dance competitions however where I teach we do not do them, dance is subjective and even though we have developed a criteria to meet each level there is never a clear winner.
