ABSTRACT

It is my privilege to be able to begin to guide you, as reader, through our final editorial thoughts, and interwoven reflections, on this text. It has been an uplifting ‘project’ for the four of us, as editors, to have been involved with over this last two years or so. We would like to thank all of our contributors for the time, care and thoughtfulness they have shown in the production of each chapter. Drawing together the multidisciplinary expertise of all our contributors has been a relatively easy task. Their dedication to the subject matter has produced an accomplished text that delivers on our original aims: to bring to you contemporary perspectives about the reality of reflective practice in the sport and exercise science domain. We hoped it would make you think about the value of reflective practice as a life skill and process: an invaluable skill that is worth honing and refining over time and that you then ‘carry with you’; forever.
