This episode explores the psychological needs of coaches in sport, prioritising coaches' own sense of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. I discusses how these needs impact coaches' performance and their inclination towards supporting athletes' needs by extension. As coaches we are performers and people in our own right, deserving of feeling empowered, effective, and connected. A listen for coaches, coaching teams, and operational leadership alike to consider the interaction of coach and athlete support to achieve positive outcomes.
