Types of Communication in Sport Interactions

Abstract

This article studies the type, category and content of non-verbal information, as well as the speech acts, characterized by verbal incompleteness, used by football trainers during the training sessions of various professional teams. Its main goal is to identify and characterize the knowledge structure which generates the different concepts produced in these sessions, with the corresponding representations of mobile conceptual units.
