“The Autocratic” or Coach Centred Style

• The Coach makes all the decisions and directs all the activities

• The assumption is that the coach has the experience and knowledge so the athlete should only listen

• It is most appropriate where safety is a critical factor

“The Laissez-Faire” or Laid Back Approach

• ‘Set Up and Stand Back’ - let the participants choose the activities

• The easiest style to put into practice• Let the participants run the programme• It may seem easier to adopt if the coach

has little experience• Not really helping participants learn skills• Less supervision highlights a higher risk of

injury
