On September 21, 2022 from 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm, during National Coaches Week, Sport Manitoba Coaching will be hosting a FREE professional development session titled: Maximizing Coach Mental Well-Being. The session will be hosted on Zoom and participants will receive 1 PD point towards their maintenance of certification for attending.
Session Description: Recognition for the importance of mental well-being in sports has been growing in recent years, although the focus is often directed toward athletes. Sport coaches are also under significant pressure in terms of not only producing results, but also supporting athletes through sport’s ups and downs, managing relationships with other sport stakeholders (e.g., officials, integrated support teams, event organizers), and striving to find a healthy work-life balance. This workshop will explore the psychological stressors common to coaching and, through a blend of research, anecdotes from high-performance coaches, and dialogue, will discuss strategies for promoting coach mental well-being.
