The Instructor gives instructions often concerning rules or safety – “don’t throw the javelin until I say” or “don’t step out of the front of the discus circle”. The lines of communication are 1 way so there’s nothing to discuss

The trainer is interested in outcome. He or she will give advice on technique, training or diet that directly relates to improved performance. There is 2 way communication

The educator is interested in and keen to develop the whole person. There is a 2 way relationship and the experience outweighs the outcome.

Case Study 1 (Teacher)Case Study 1 (Teacher)A P.E teacher is teaching a group of pupils football. He is very keen to establish the spirit of the game and sportsmanship as well as the rules. He explains the consequences of breaking the rules and cheating in the sport and why it is undesirable. The coach has explained that all pupils who’s behaviour on the pitch is unacceptable will be dropped from the team and punished accordingly. • What would you class as ‘unacceptable’ behaviour in football (or any team game)

2. Having explained the punishment for poor behaviour, what would you say if one of the players claimed to have seen you, the P.E teacher playing a club game on a Saturday afternoon, where you were sent off for a deliberate foul?

• During the next match your team is 1-0 up with 1 minute to play in an important cup semi final.

• You hear the captain instructing his team to waste time by kicking the ball as far away as possible and slowing play down.

1. Having explained about desirable behaviour on the pitch. What would you say to your team after the match about this incident?

•The coach of a mixed hockey squad is preparing her team for a major championship game. Together with two selectors, the coach watches a practice game and decides that the captain is so out of form that she will have to be dropped for the all important game. The captain is recovering from injury but has also suffered the anguish of a relative involved in a car crash. The members of the team have loyalties to their captain and their coach but also desire to win the championship game.

Case Study 2 (Coach)

What would you do?

• Set up a role play situation

• When you have decided whether the captain should play or not, discuss the consequences to the coach and the team if:

a) The game is won, either without the captain or with the captain.

b) The game is lost either with the captain or without the captain.

Coaches have many choices in the way they behave but by thinking through the consequences, their judgement can completely change the process and the product of any sporting situation.

• Has a similar situation ever occurred with your teacher/coach?

•Take 1 of the roles of the coach and explain how you would act given this problem with the captain
