Abstract
-
Whether it be between players or coaches, effective communication is crucial in the game of softball. This study took information from observing and surveying players on the WOU softball team to find that goal setting, positive and clear coaching language, and communication from the dugout and on the field are the forms of language that help the team reach success. More research should be done to get coaches’ points of view in this discourse community.
