Abstract
Athletes can develop many interpersonal relationships. The most important relationship can be the one athletes develop with their coach as it can have the greatest influence on the training process, performance outcomes, and satisfaction with sport experience. The understanding of the importance of coach-athlete relationship in inclusive sport continues to be limited. The purpose of this paper is threefold: to describe the role coach-athlete relationship can play in inclusive tennis programming, to demonstrate adaptation techniques and strategies using an athlete-centered approach, and to present potential implications for practice and research. The complexity of the coach-athlete relationship including its meaning and key components are discussed. Accessibility to inclusive sport is considered.
