Abstract:
This study draws on models from medicine and education to examine competitive youth coaches' perceptions of a reflective intervention on their interpersonal behaviours, which included pre-briefing, in-situ observation, reflection cards, and debriefing sessions. Through qualitative interviews with 12 coaches conducted before and after the intervention, we explored its usability and the coaches' perceived outcomes in awareness, confidence, motivation, and perceived behaviour change related to interpersonal and intrapersonal coaching practices. Findings highlight the transformative potential of a reflective intervention to support meaningful behaviour change and enhance coaching effectiveness. Coaches reported increased confidence and a deeper appreciation of the role of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills in fostering positive coach-athlete relationships following the intervention. These insights offer important implications for coach development programming and applied coaching practice.
