The National Standards for Sport Coaches (2006) provide direction for coaching educators, sport administrators, coaches, athletes and their families, and the public regarding the skills and knowledge that coaches should possess. They reflect fundamental actions and orientations that administrators, athletes, and the public should expect of sport coaches at various levels of competition. The expansion of knowledge applicable to coaching enables us to continually improve standards related to the care, health, performance, and safety of athletes. Because coaches are teachers and mentors who influence and spend considerable time with athletes, they must have resources to improve their knowledge and skills and meet their changing expectations on and off the the field. it is imperative that coaches aspire to and achieve high standards as well as have resources available to assist them in gaining necessary skills and knowledge.
