    Bachelor Programs in Sports Coaching

    A Bachelor of Science usually takes three to five years to complete depending on institution requirements, the area of focus and student preference. This degree typically focuses on science-related disciplines.

    What is a Bachelor in Sports Coaching? This area of study goes by a couple names: BSc in Sports Leadership and Bachelor of Sports Science in Coaching. Regardless of the name, most programs offer a sports science core with coaching electives. Courses available may include coaching theory and methods, conditioning and fitness training, sports psychology, and officiating sports. You may learn the science behind coaching, gaining the skills and knowledge necessary to improve individual athletes and teams using psychology, physiology and the biomechanics of sports performance.

    You are likely to gain key skills employers are looking for in everything from communications to corporate management as well as the sports industry. Skills include leadership, accountability and teamwork.

    The cost of attending a four-year university can vary depending on the length of courses, the area of study and the curriculum. Many degrees are offered online at a more affordable rate. The admissions office at your school of choice should be able to give you more detailed information on tuition costs.

    There are many career paths you may wish to follow once graduating. Many students find themselves leaning towards becoming teachers of physical or health education. If coaching or education do not sound appealing, consider exploring a career as a sports administrator or as a fitness center manager. You might even be able to pursue a career as an exercise physiologist where you study how people’s bodies respond and adapt to physical activity to help improve fitness levels or prevent and treat illness.
