Routledge Coach Education in Football - Global Perspectives

Association football is a massive global sport with millions of players across more than 200 countries. Because of this scale, there is a growing need for an educated coaching workforce that can provide high-quality training practices. This book, Coach Education in Football: Contemporary Issues and Global Perspectives, addresses this need by looking at how coach education is built. As part of the Routledge Research in Sports Coaching series, this text explores how formal coach education is socially constructed. It examines the social, cultural, and historical factors that influence how coaching programs are designed and delivered around the world. This is the first book to explicitly explore these specific themes within the context of football coaching. Whether you are a professional in sports science, a football coach, or a researcher, this book provides a deep look into the systems that develop the next generation of football leaders. It offers a unique look at the global landscape of coaching development and the factors that shape modern training environments.
