Abstract

Struggle is inherent in social interaction and meaning making. The argument proposed in this article is that coaches face a struggle in moving between a private coaching identity (intra-team discourse in the form of team huddles) and a public coaching identity (media interview discourse), each of which is linked by the shared focus on the coach’s primary goals of maintaining team identity and pursuing institutional goals. Each identity is constructed using a different conglomeration of stances that are shaped in part by the context and in part by the goals of the interaction.
