Format:Paperback
Althought the book is written slightly toned down and easy going within the academic sense, this doesn't compromise the excellent use of coaching knowledge and expertise. The book is a must for aspiring coaches both young and old whilst students will be rewarded with the clear and concise areas covered that generate thought to ones own coaching and the future landscape of the profession. A must for all within coaching.
