Abstract
Scottish Hockey's Business Plan 2008 - 2014 highlights the need to support individuals to improve and develop their coaching skills and knowledge through qualifications, mentoring and continued professional development. A workforce audit (Lyle, 2007) and the sportscotland Women in Coaching Programme (sportscotland, 2007) provided evidence that women are underrepresented in coaching roles in hockey in Scotland. This report examines the current status of the hockey coaching workforce in Scotland and development experiences and needs of women coaching hockey in Scotland
