Convention • Coaches play a central role in providing sport experiences for sportspeople of all ages and skill levels • To fulfil their role, coaches must have appropriate competence and training, taking into account the target group(s) with whom they are working • Coaches are expected to be as concerned with the well being of the sportspeople as they are with optimising performance. • Coaches should respect the rights, dignity and worth of every sports participant, and treat everyone equally, regardless of sex, ethnic origin, religion or political conviction. • Coaches are expected to work in an open and co-operative manner with all individuals responsible for the welfare and performance development of the sportspeople. • Coaches should develop and maintain a high standard of training; their action, whilst conducting training sessions, should reflect scientific knowledge and current expertise.

  19. Convention • Scientific principles should be applied in every level of coaches’ training. • Responsibilities and professional competence should gradually build up from the initial levels of coaches’ qualification to the final ones. • All coaches should hold a coaching qualification that is recognised by the national competent authority and the relevant federation. • The framework for the recognition of coaching competence and qualifications as proposed by the European Coaching Council is the European recognised mechanism reference point for the period 2008-11. • The establishment of a formal review mechanism will be investigated to provide a basis on which prior learning and current competence can be recognised and where coaching qualifications can be reviewed against the ECC framework. • Consideration should be given to the establishment of a licensing system that will have international recognition and currency.
