The purpose of the current study is to further Abraham and colleagues’ (2006) work by examining the applicability of the schematic model on developmental coaches and to report similarities or differences in factors potentially influencing their decision making process when compared to elite coaches. 12 developmental coaches from three aesthetic sports: figure skating, dancesport and gymnastics participated in an hour long one-to-one structured interview session. A three-stage thematic analysis was then used to analyse the transcribed interview. Similarities and differences were seen on all three sources of knowledge. However, a more distinguished contrast was seen in the pedagogical aspect. As hypothesized, results revealed surface implicit representation as well as explicit support that developmental coaches with formal coaching educational backgrounds have similar decision making process when compared to expert coaches. Developmental coaches credited this finding to the exposure to rigorous sports science diploma or degree curriculum, which accelerated their development and boosted their learning curves. The lack of considerations on non-conventional factors, such as personal athletic experiences and past coaches, and the neglect towards coach-athlete relationship dynamics were highlighted as the current model’s flaw. To further advance coaching ability, coaches suggested and supported the idea of an organized mentorship program. With emphasis on mass participation in Singapore, findings suggest that future coach education programs should include a more comprehensive theoretical course to equip coaches with necessary sport specific knowledge to expedite their learning and build a more knowledgeable base of coaches.
