2024
The psychology of coaching is fundamentally a group of strategies that are
developed to assist the coaches to increase their ability to influence the
behaviour of players efficiently. You are required to interact with a coach
over a period. It can either be a team or individual sport coach. You must
go through various stages of the project which also include reading
prescribed and recommended readings. Thereafter, you are required to
compile a report about your experience with a coach. The main purpose of
this assignment is to introduce you to the working context of a sport
psychologist and the academic literature on sport psychology and
coaching. The final report that you submit for assignment 02 will be the
product of your interactions with a coach and having consulted various
recommended readings. In order to assist you to plan and structure the
report, we have suggested below the specific outline of your report. It
consists of five sections with each section reflecting a different stage of
your work. You should use the outline as a checklist when compiling the
report. The assignment will be marked using a rubric which will be posted
on myUnisa. The rubric is designed to reflect each aspect of the
instructions and you may easily lose marks for omissions. So, pay careful
attention to the instructions. Marks will also be awarded for attention to
technical aspects (formatting, grammar, referencing) and for creativity.
