Overview

International Sport Coaching Framework
• Program areas for a southern Africa Coaching Council to consider
Dr. Pat Duffy, 1959-2014
•Professor of Sport Coaching, LBU•ICCE VP, Strategy and Development •Chair, European Coaching Council•Consultant, SASCOC
What made Pat such an effective leader?
• Seeing the future: creating a vision; long-term / system thinking; knowing what is essential to move forward - planning
• Finding a common thread: consensus building; finding areas of agreement – change management
• Building better people: the ultimate coach – helping everyone get better - partnerships
Long-term System Thinking
Think of one of the athletes in your club or organization:
• What’s his or her lifelong journey in sport and physical activity going to be like?
• How are you as a coach or educator going to help him or her on that journey?
Consensus Building / Managing Transitions
Transitions are unpredictable, messy, nonlinear and emotionally charged: •“B” is unknown and uncertain •“A” is no longer viable•There are many routes to “B” •“B” changes as we approach it.
Ibarra, H. P. 163
Pat: comfort with ambiguity; “direction of travel”
The ICCE: a global cooperative
• A group of like-minded organizations with a commitment to improving the quality of coaching
• Mutual assistance in working towards a common goal: not only what you get from, but also what you bring to, the ICCE
• Not-for-profit, member funded

...are trained to develop, support and challenge
coaches to go on honing and improving their knowledge
and skills to provide positive and effective sport experiences for all
participants’ IGLA CD Group
... ‘aren’t only subject matter experts, aren’t only
concerned with delivering courses; they have a key role to play in different learning
situations and bring significant expertise in the
process of learning.’
Essential element of the South African Coaching Framework

Leading
Mentoring
Programme design and evaluation
COACH DEVELOPER ROLES
International Sport Coaching Framework: Key messages
Coaching as participant-centred and context specific
Coaching as a tool for developing people
and communities not only athletes
Coaching as a competency-based
blended professional area
Coaching as more than delivering
sessions
Preparing a Coach Developer workforce
Developing a common-language
and a tool for sharing and system
development
Coach Mobility
Implications: questions to consider
• What specific programs are needed for coaches of children?
• What is the role of Higher Education, and the relationship among HE institutions and sport federations?
• How do we enhance the skills of our current coaches of high performance athletes?
• Do we have a Coach Developer workforce to prepare our coaches?
Program Areas for a southern African Coaching Council to consider
1. Coach Education, differentiating participation and performance coaching, and coaches of youth, junior and high performance athletes (examples of Diploma and Professional Development programs)
2. Coach Developers: facilitation, coach assessment, mentoring, program design
3. Sport safety: ethics in sport / child protection4. Under-represented groups: Women-in-
coaching, coaching paralympians5. Coach representation: the voice of the coach

Enhancing the Voice of the Coach
How can we improve opportunities for coaches to have a stronger say in the decisions of sport organizations (international, national and local)?
• Encourage the development of Coaches Associations• Coach Representation on organization Boards and
committees• Build the Coaching Profession: Coaches Charter
outlining a coach’s rights and obligations• Global Coaches Houses: building the Community of
Coaches
Why should coaches be involved in decision making?
• Coach is the closest link to the athlete.• The coach is the expert• Building – and buy-in - to a shared vision.
• Decisions directly effect the coach• To advocate for better working conditions
Sport Org’s interest
Coach’s interest
Lessons Learned: Pat’s strength as a leader
• Seeing the future / creating a vision: it evolves, it’s messy, but spend time thinking 5+ years into the future.
• Finding a common thread / consensus building: can we agree on a “direction of travel”
• Building better people: helping everyone get better – everyone has something to contribute
