Key components of coach development (Mallet, 2010)
- Sport participation experience: various studies find
minimum of 5 years playing experience among high performance coaches (not necessarily high level)
- Coaching experience: 10 years coaching experience
before engagement in high performance (often at developmental level)
- Formal education: high level of engagement at
graduate and post graduate level (56-84% in Europe (Trudel & Gilbert, 2006) and 65% in Australia

Coaching development model –key concepts
Pre- coaching
- These roles will support assistant coaches and coaches in children’s and participation domains. Pre-coaching roles are often
played by parents or young adults in helping out with coaching, without having made a commitment to play a coaching role or to
- btain formal qualifications. These roles are voluntary and provide an important pathway into coaching, as well as supporting
the delivery of coaching at local level. The roles are subject to basic safety and child protection guidelines and should operate under the supervision of a qualified Coach.
Coaching
- These roles will include Assistant Coach and Coach roles that are carried out on a volunteer basis in children’s; participation;
performer development and high performance domains. Minimum standards in relation to safety; child protection and qualifications will apply to these coaching roles. All those playing coaching roles will be expected to register with their national federation and to comply with a Coaches Code of Ethics and Good Practice.
- Also, consider ‘paraprofessional’ and ‘trainer’ labels
Professional coaching
- Professional coaches will include all coaches who are paid in any coaching capacity. It will also include coaches operating at
senior and master coach levels across the four coaching domains, whether in a paid or volunteer capacity. Volunteer coaches operating in these roles will be regarded as ‘professional volunteers’. All professional coaches will be expected to comply with minimum standards in relation to safety; child protection and qualifications. They will also be subject to a licensing process that will be introduced on a sport by sport basis and in the context of a core set of guidelines. Professional coaches will adhere to Professional Coaches Code of Ethics and Good Practice.
