This study examined high school sports coaches’ perspectives about a character-based coach education workshop designed to promote positive coaching practices and transform the culture of youth sports. Fifteen coaches (Mage = 42.07, SD = 14.62, 73.3% male) provided feedback about Positive Coaching Alliance’s (PCA) “Double-Goal Coach” training program and what aspects of the workshop they applied to their coaching practices. Results indicated that coaches believed that participation in PCA workshops contributed to the value coaches attributed to individuals, to coach-oriented character development, and to positive relationships within youth sports. The coaches also suggested changes in future PCA workshops. These findings provide preliminary evidence that coaches’ incorporate skills acquired through participation in character-based coach education programs. We discuss implications for coaches and athletes, and for policies aimed at enhancing positive youth attributes developed through sport.

In recent years, people have paid special attention to their own health status and paid more and more attention to the cultivation of physical fitness. People of different ages have begun physical exercises. As a compulsory course in university, physical education has played a very positive role in the health of students. In order to promote the common development of basketball activities in many sports academies across the country and improve the educational quality of basketball majors, with a view to cultivating basketball and football talents in line with the culture and social development of the times, this article investigates and evaluates the basketball activities of sports coaches in many sports academies, discusses the pros and cons of high school sports in basketball and other related fields, and provides references and suggestions for improvement in the reform of basketball activities in some sports academies. The results of the study found that based on the Internet of Things and edge computing models, physical training in college sports basketball optional courses has been greatly improved compared with traditional physical training methods. Adding adaptive scheduling to Core 1, priority 1 and 5 was distributed on Core 2∼5. Priority 2 tasks tend to be more balanced.

We conducted two studies to investigate predictors of coaching motivation. In Study One, we focused on variables linked to coaching motivation and burnout in adult sports coaches. We examined high school extracurricular experiences, and coaching engagement. Positive interpersonal events experienced during high school predicted coaching motivation and a motivation. Positive interpersonal and performance events in high school predicted feelings of reduced accomplishment, while negative interpersonal and performance events in high school predicted physical exhaustion. Two aspects of coaching engagement, vigor and absorption predicted coaching motivation. Thus, coaches’ motivation was predicted by both high school and current coaching events. In Study Two, we examined whether the same high school events predicted a desire to coach in recent high school graduates. Participants retrospectively reported participation in high school sports or heavy investment in alternate activities (e.g., marching band). For both groups, identification with the activity and dedication to the activity predicted a desire to coach. A desire to coach was not predicted by high school extracurricular events. Our findings indicate that high school experiences exerted differential effects on recent graduates versus adult coaches in terms of attitudes toward coaching.
