classification of coaches by sport? | Welcome and General

One of the great strengths of the ConnectedCoaches plarform is the wide range of experience of the members, from diverse sports.

But there have been occasions when it might have been useful to be able to find another coach working in a particular sport - cricket, in my case.

Not to create sport-select ghettoes, but to be able to direct a sport-specific topic to someone with immediate experience.

I tried searching the profiles section, but it did not work (for me, when I tried it).

Not sure what anyone else thinks on this idea, though.

Hi Andrew

Funny you should mention this as I was literally just typing up a proposed developments document and the ability to do sport specific people searches within groups was on it! Hopefully we will be able to add this functionality to the platform in the not to distant future.

In the meantime you can search for people by sport using the main search function.

If you type in cricket that will bring up (or should) a list of all the content on ConnectedCoaches where cricket is mentioned (e.g. blogs, people [assuming profiles have been filled in], etc).

You can then filter these results by "people" to display coaches associated with that search term. As you will see from the below the people category is at the bottom of the list so you just need to click that

Hope this helps!

Cheers
