Abstract：
Within the domain of coach education researchers have long called for a paradigm shift, whereby the quality of coaching practice is no longer measured against a checklist of prescribed competencies. This desire to evolve coach education and development, has been aligned to the need to better identify, understand and utilise what adaptive skill and expertise looks, sounds and feels like across specific sport coaching contexts. This paper outlines a broader research plan for the Premier League to drive the progress of research informed practice, in turn shaping a coach development agenda focused on developing adaptive and skilful coaches within Academies. In turn, this is a core feature of the Premier Leagues institutional aim of developing the most skilful coaches in the world. However, in order to begin the process of initiating such a shift in the way things work, there is a need to seek first to understand, before being understood. Therefore, to demonstrate an evidence informed basis to this shift within coach education and development, we ask three questions; (1) Do we understand what the coaches with the highest level of expertise can do? (2) How should we identify coaches with expertise across different contexts? (3) What does coaching expertise research need to do? In answer to these questions, we present the lack of empirical investigation previously conducted in the sports coaching discipline to explore coaching expertise and draw on wider domains to offer possible capacities of skilful coaches who possess expertise. To identify coaches with expertise, coherent with the broader expertise literature, we suggest that this is best conducted via means of social validation. Finally, we offer a road map of investigation designed to explore expertise, formed of a mix of evidence informed methodologies which have not yet been utilised in sport coaching research.
摘要：
在教练教育领域，研究人员长期以来一直呼吁进行范式转变，因此，教练实践的质量不再根据规定的能力清单进行衡量。这种发展教练教育和发展的愿望，已经适应了更好地识别的需要，理解并利用适应性技能和专业知识，听起来和感觉都像是在特定的运动教练环境中。本文概述了英超联赛更广泛的研究计划，以推动研究知情实践的进展，反过来，制定教练发展议程，重点是在学院内发展适应性和熟练的教练。反过来,这是英超联赛旨在培养世界上最熟练的教练的核心特征。然而,为了开始启动这种转变的过程，有必要首先寻求理解，在被理解之前。因此,为了证明教练教育和发展中这一转变的证据，我们问三个问题；（1）我们是否了解具有最高水平专业知识的教练可以做什么？（2）我们应该如何识别具有不同背景的专业知识的教练？（3）教练专业知识研究需要做什么？在回答这些问题时，我们目前缺乏以前在体育教练学科中进行的实证调查，以探索教练的专业知识，并利用更广泛的领域来提供具有专业知识的熟练教练的可能能力。要确定具有专业知识的教练，与更广泛的专业知识文献相一致，我们建议最好通过社会验证的方式进行。最后,我们提供旨在探索专业知识的调查路线图，由尚未在运动教练研究中使用的证据知情方法组成。
