Coaches are prominent in youth sport retention. To prevent youth player attrition coaches require specific knowledge about how to coach for enhanced player experience. This is important for 'present' retention as players who are engaged in a positive sporting culture and climate show increased level of enjoyment, motivation and wellbeing. Consequently, a coach that enhances player experience is more likely to foster with their players a longer term appreciation of involvement in sport.

For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly.

By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.
