Inclusive Coach between Theory and Practice

In the first part, the study (through a pedagogical approach) outlines the theoretical characteristics of an inclusive coach, after clarifying the concept of inclusive sport. In the second part, the study present the data from a survey conducted on 70 Baskin (Integrated Basketball) coaches working with 53 Baskin clubs in Italy. Baskin is an inclusive sport in which people with disabilities (of various types) and people without disabilities play together in the same team, through a series of rules and roles that allow everyone to participate, based on the principles of accessibility and equal opportunities. Through a questionnaire for baskin coaches, the analysis focuses on the following topics: 1. Education; 2. Motivation and interest in working in the field of inclusive sports; 3. The skills of the inclusive coach; 4. Any training needs. The aim is to clarify which training, such as skills, must embrace an inclusive coach in order to provide an innovative university education.
