    Kampa-Kokesch & Anderson (2001) carried out a seminal review of coaching research and their findings underlined the shortage of empirical studies on the topic. Although research studies can be traced back to the early 1930’s they revealed limitations in the available literature which included inadequate sample sizes, claims not wholly supported by data and weaknesses in methodology. Such problems are not uncommon in newer studies (Passmore & Gibbes, 2007). Fillery-Travis & Passmore (2010) suggest that if we take into account the progression of other disciplines we can achieve an understanding of the direction of growth for the extant scholarship on coaching. As a new field of study progresses, it goes through numerous stages before maturing and as a field begins to mature, it tends to focus on redefining what it is concerned with.

  • Influence Of Motivation On Sports Performance

    It is reasonable to assume that female’s motivation can have a bigger impact on their performance than a male motivation can have on their performance since female intrinsic motivation is higher than males. However, it may not be the case since there was no research done on whether the amount of motivation has a different affect on the performance. Also variations may occur depending on an athlete’s status whether he is on scholarship, a professional, amateur, in a relationship or single, and etc. For example a scholarship student would be more motivated to succeed because he / she want to show that he / she deserved the

On the other hand, when any culture makes the effort to level the playing field of opportunity, female participation rises dramatically. In 1972, before the enactment of Title IX, the landmark law that ensured gender equality in educational opportunities, only 7% of high school athletes were girls. Today it 's 42%.
