Abstract

The purpose of this study was to build a theoretical framework to understand the delivery of video-based performance analysis by youth soccer coaches in England. Data were collected from interviews with 14 English youth soccer coaches, who had used video-based performance analysis for more than 3 years in their coaching practice. Using a grounded theory methodology (CitationStrauss & Corbin, 1998), data were analyzed and conceptual links between concepts were theorized. Categories regarding contextual factors, delivery approach and targeted outcome were highlighted. Results are compared against existing coaching literature to provide a more realistic representation of the phenomena for the education of coaches.

Notes

1. The member-checking technique with the two participant coaches was not audio recorded nor were they subjected to the analytic coding procedures. Instead, these participants reflected on the structure and design of the emerging theory.
