About the course

The MSc in Sport Coaching positions sport coaching as a political, pedagogical, and sociocultural endeavour. Its aim is to produce reflexive and ethical sports coaching scholars who critically position themselves in historically and culturally constituted coaching discourses and practices. In doing so, the MSc in Sport Coaching provides a unique opportunity for the development of imaginative action and thinking to support personal and professional progression.

Entry Requirements

My love for sport and science, together with Cardiff Met’s high-quality facilities and practical, hands-on approach, made it the perfect place to continue my studies. Progressing into postgraduate study here felt like the natural next step. Having already experienced the University’s blend of academic rigour and applied learning, I knew it would be an environment where I could continue to grow both academically and professionally.
