RESEARCH ON THE IMPACT OF COACH BEHAVIOR AND COACHING MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CAPACITY OF YOUTH ATHLETES

Abstract

The cultivation of young athletes is the cornerstone of sports expansion, and the capacity of young athletes to progress in a sustainable way has attracted significant attention from governments worldwide. The guidance provided by coaches is crucial for the development of these attributes. Currently, there is a lack of methods to regulate coach conduct, and it is crucial to examine which elements will impact coach behaviour. Furthermore, it is crucial to assess the degree to which enhancing coaching management techniques will enhance the abilities of young athletes to develop in a sustainable way.Data for this inquiry was collected using a questionnaire sent to 312 adolescent athletes. The data analysis in AMOS included the use of the structural equation model (SEM). The research findings indicate that coaches' conduct significantly influences both the coaching practices and the development of environmentally responsible abilities in adolescent athletes. The statistical importance of the mediating influence conducted by coach management approaches is shown. The findings of this research provide useful insights into how the conduct of coaches might be standardized to enhance the sustainable development of adolescent athletes.
