ABSTRACT:
The purposes of this investigation were to (1) determine selected coaching behaviors of youth soccer coaches in game practice settings and (2) compare the perceived behavior of the coaches to their actual observed behavior. Thirty-two observers, trained and tested in using the Coaching Behavior Assessment Inventory (CBAI), coded the behaviors of 17 volunteer youth sport coaches for teams of male and female players, ages 11-14 years. Post-season questionnaires were administered to the coaches and players on their perceptions and attitudes towards selected variables. Sixty-nine practices and 60 games were observed with 17,915 behaviors coded. Percentage comparisons revealed that proportionately more instructional/organizational and negative comments occurred in practices while more encouraging remarks weremade in games. Results also revealed that coaches were partially effective at estimating their own behaviors. Determines selected coaching behaviours of youth soccer coaches in game and practice settings.
