Coaching for elite performance

As well as improving the health and wellbeing of us all, University of Bedfordshire researchers work at the leading edge of elite performance.

Dr Stephen Harvey and colleagues have developed a computerised observation software for analysing and improving coaching behaviour.

Designed for use on an iPad, the Coach Analysis Intervention System (CAIS) is able to provide researchers, coach educators and coaches with a range of data that helps coaches improve their practice.  

CAIS has been endorsed by UEFA. And national governing bodies such as the England and Wales Cricket Board has written into its coach education awards the use of CAIS in order for coaches to explore their coaching practice.

Key players in the sport and education sectors are set to benefit from the innovative app these include the British Olympic Association and Football Association.

Sports Coach UK is already using the application with its ASPIRE program as are Leicester City Football Club and the England and Wales Cricket Board.
