Abstract
This case study relates to the field of sport psychology describing coach's tasks and skills. A coach should have the knowledge and skills of technique, tactics, fitness and psychology regarding the sport.
In essence, it's not just what coach knows, but how well he can communicate information to others (Weinberg & Gould, 2011). Good communication skills contribute to performance enhancement, personal growth, good interpersonal relationship and also to positive motivational climate.
The aim of this case study is to use the Video Interaction Guidance (VIG, in Czech rep. VTI; Biemans, 1990) method for working with coach in order to develop his communication and skills and consequently evaluate utility of this method.
Based on the previous experience of the author with this intervention method (Baláková, 2011, 2013) number of interventions was extended. Methods used for the purpose of evaluation of the intervention (participated observing, semi-structured interview with coach and questionnaires completed by players) have been slightly modified.
The paper helps to increase the number of VIG application areas and shows the direction how it is possible to educate coaches and improve their skills.
