When does the Coach cross the line?

All of us, at some point in our lives, probably had a coach yell at us when we messed up in a game or at training. It’s something we take thinking that our coach is just trying to toughen us up and has our best interests at heart.

To discuss emotionally abusive coaches, The Daily’s Victor Petrovic joined by Chris Zehntner, Lecturer in Health and Physical Education at Southern Cross University.
