#18 Mark Adams - Sport coaching for social change

  • Summary

  • In this episode I'm joined by Mark Adams, a social inclusion officer at Glasgow City Council, to discuss how coaches can mould better citizens and stronger individuals within their practice.


    Topics discussed include:


    - Reconceptualising the contemporary sport coach as a powerful social actor (when trained and supported to be so)

    - Teaching independent thought and awareness around influence to empower resistance against damaging beliefs

    - Valuing open communication over punishment to address social ignorance

    - How to hold conversations around social topics related to the demographic you coach.

    - Plus more!
