8th ICCE Global Coach Conference – Paris, France

The 8th ICCE Global Coaches Conference took place between 25th and 27th of August 2011 at the newly renovated, exceptional facilities of INSEP Paris, France. This event ran in conjunction with the 11th Forum of the European Network for Sport Science, Education and Employment (ENSSEE).

The 8th ICCE Global Coach Conference was planned around the main topic of ‘Innovation and Practice’ and the programme provided delegates with a wide range of opportunities to explore it through a careful mix of policy, research and practical sessions, together with the typically frantic and spontaneous networking sessions that took place during meals and breaks.

A significant feature of this year’s Conference was the inclusion of the newly formed ICCE Innovation Group of Leading Agencies (IGLA) into the pre-conference events and meetings. This group brings together ten world-leading coaching agencies for the purpose of advancing coach development in a number of priority areas. Currently, IGLA is focusing on three themes: Quality Improvement in Coaching; Teaching and Learning; and High Performance Coaching.

Finally, the Conference was marked strongly by developments around the International Sport Coaching Framework, a joint project between ICCE and ASOIF (Association of Summer Olympic International Federations) now supported by a high number of international sport bodies (Olympic Solidarity; Sport Unit of the European Commission; World Anti Doping Agency ; IOC Entourage Commission) and international federations.

We would like to express our most sincere gratitude to Mr Thierry Maudet, Mr Michel Godard and the staff at INSEP Paris for the impeccable and flawless organisation of the event.
