Modern amateurs can be found throughout art, science, sport and entertainment. When examining amateurs in sport most of the research has predominantly focussed on amateur players and little attention has been given to amateur coaches. The goal of this book was to explore the world of amateur hockey coaches, in hopes of generating grounded theory and of developing a better understanding of coaching, as well as contributing to the existing literature on modern amateurs. What was of interest and importance was the coaches' attitudes and perceptions about their coaching orientations, responsibilities, commitments, and conflicts. Their definitions and perspectives of their situations, as well as their values and philosophies were the most important elements of the study. This research should be of interest to those interested in hockey, coaching, the Sociology of Sport, and the study of serious leisure.
