If we are truly going to deliver world-leading environments the art of the coach in being the architect of these environments is critical. Alongside practice design, to deliver an engaging learning environment a coach needs to also consider the following elements: 16 • Be aware of who they are, what they represent and the impact they have on others. • Create effective and sustainable relationships with others in order to meet leaning environment goals. • Take responsibility in driving a culture that meets the needs and reflects the behaviours of a successful learning environment. • Have a sound knowledge of the sport that allows the coach to maximise the learning environment. The more inspirational our coaches can be, the more befitting our environments can be, the more progressive we can be, and the more we will achieve for our sport.
