A ‘Winning Coaches’ seminar was held in Lisbon on 7th June 2014, bringing together all Portuguese coaches in the Olympic programme for a very fruitful day of presentations and discussion. ICCE was represented by Vice President for Europe, Dr Jose Curado; Senior Research Fellow, Mr Sergio Lara-Bercial; Board Member, Dr Adrian Burghi; and long-standing ICCE collaborator and one of coaching’s greatest advocates, legendary coach Professor Frank Dick. Also presenting were successful Portuguese coaches such as Joao Ganco, coach to Olympic Champion Triple Jumper Nelson Evora, and Canoeing Coach Tiago Lourenco. The seminar offered an opportunity for the coaches to reflect on what it takes to be a winning coach and showcased a mix of practical and research-based presentations.
