ABSTRACT

Sport coaching scholars extol the hope that relations of care will bring to sport. Yet, the insidious nature of relations of power and domination have been under-theorised with respect to care theory in sport coaching. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to problematise sport coaches’ perceptions of caring relations and to consider how caring coaching practices discipline athletic bodies. Specifically, we re-analysed interview data collected from multiple studies over several years; participants included 53 assistant or head coaches representing 11 sports employed at the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I level in the USA. Our reanalysis demonstrates how Foucault’s concepts such as technologies of discipline and the confession are enacted under the coaches’ articulation of care, thus creating docile bodies, whilst concealing issues related to equity, dependency, and exploitation

摘要

体育教练学者赞扬关怀关系给体育运动带来的希望。然而，相对于体育教练中的关怀理论，权力和统治关系的阴险本质尚未得到充分理论化。因此，本研究的目的是质疑体育教练对关怀关系的看法，并考虑关怀教练如何训练运动员的身体。具体来说，我们重新分析了几年来从多项研究中收集的访谈数据；参与者包括 53 名助理教练或主教练，代表美国国家大学体育协会一级职业的 11 项运动。我们的再分析展示了福柯的概念，如纪律技术和忏悔，是如何在教练的关怀表达下实施的，从而创造出温顺的身体，
