A vital book for equine coaches. Drawing on tried-and-tested
coaching practices used successfully in other sports, this book
provides an introduction to coaching specific to the equine
environment. The coaching process as a whole is addressed for both
the horse and rider.
The UK Government Coaching Task Force highlighted the need for the development of coaching across all sports, which led to the introduction of the UK Coaching Certificate (UKCC). Soon any coaching of horses and riders will need to be done by qualified individuals only. Equine Sports Coaching is ideal for those studying for the UKCC or other qualifications in equine sports and leisure coaching.
Key features:
• in line with UK Coaching Certificate qualifications
• covers performance analysis, periodisation of training
programmes, sports psychology, and communication skills
• advises on the personal development of the coach to support
career development in this field
