Quality Coaching Principles

Quality Coaching Principles , opens in a new tab

The Quality Coaching Principles outline the skills and attributes that prioritize quality coaching. The Principles connect the foundational document (the Quality Coaching Framework) to quality coaching performance.

These Principles are designed to guide NGBs in integrating the contents of the QCF in their coaching programs and to allow for flexibility while identifying areas of importance for skill development.

The Principles were developed by the USOPC Coaching Department in partnership with the National Governing Bodies and are intended to guide Team USA coaches and coach developers to identify good coaching practice and how to improve or enhance their coach preparation systems. As the profession of coaching evolves, so will the Quality Coaching Principles.
