Description
Summary:The coach is the key in sport training with young sportsmen; it became one of the most influential powers in the right development of boys and girls (Jones, 1992). This study tried to show the profile and the experience of football coaches in the province of Huelva, as well as the teaching methods used. 79 football coaches of the province of Huelva were analysed with the help of a survey. The data showed that the profile of a football coach for children of the province of Huelva corresponded to the following: male, between 21 and 30 years, graduated secondary school, B.U.P./C.O.U., who is playing or played football, and had been training at the youth football between 0 and 5 years.
