Coach Athlete Relationship Dynamics Diagrams

For all sports, there is a mutual goal of fostering healthy, safe, and positive relationships between coaches and their athletes. However, the power imbalance between coaches and athletes can lead to relationships based on power and control instead of care and support. #WeRideTogether created the Coach Athlete Relationship Dynamics Diagrams (C.A.R.D. Diagrams) to help coaches, athletes, parents, and bystanders recognize and identify patterns of healthy and unhealthy relationship dynamics.
