The transition from high performance athlete to retirement can present significant challenges for athletes and requires support to navigate the process successfully. Given the central role of the coach in athletes' lives, we are suggesting expanding the perspective on athlete-centre coaching to include life and career transitions thereby extending its temporal scope beyond competitive performance. While the holistic development of the athlete is emphasised, much of the literature on athlete-centred coaching focuses on preparing the athlete through a player-centred approach for competition rather than the role of the coach in athlete transition to retirement. Therefore, this perspective piece expands the notion of coaching life skills in athlete-centred coaching by Griffen and colleagues to include the important role of the coach in developing athlete capacity for transition to retirement.
从高水平运动员过渡到退役，对运动员来说可能面临重大挑战，需要支持才能成功度过这一过程。鉴于教练在运动员生活中的核心作用，我们建议拓宽以运动员为中心的教练视角，将生活和职业转型纳入其中，从而将其时间范围扩展到竞技表现之外。虽然强调运动员的全面发展，但许多关于以运动员为中心的教练的文献都侧重于通过以球员为中心的方法让运动员为比赛做准备，而不是教练在运动员退役过渡中的作用。因此，这篇观点文章扩展了格里芬及其同事提出的以运动员为中心的教练中培养生活技能的概念，将教练在培养运动员退役过渡能力方面的重要作用纳入其中。
