This study determined the coaching styles and the performance of athletes in the
Pangasinan II division. The study used the descriptive method of research and included 112 sports
coaches of individual events as respondents. It used percentage, frequency counts, weighted mean,
analysis of variance, and Pearson r product-moment coefficient of correlation through SPSS 21 in
its statistical treatment.
The study found out that respondent coaches are predominantly males with some units
leading to a Master’s degree and within 6-10 years in service. The majority of them received gold
awards at the division level and decreases as they go to the regional and national levels. There are
14 organizations for individual sports and all coaches are highly proficient concerning democratic,
autocratic, and holistic coaching styles. The coaching styles have a very high degree of effect on
the performance of athletes.
The study also found out that there is a significant difference in the autocratic coaching
style of the coaches concerning sex, length of service, and seminars or training attended. There is
no significant difference in the coaching style concerning the highest educational attainment. There
is a significant relationship between the autocratic and democratic coaching styles and the awards
received in sports at the division level. There is also a significant relationship between the
democratic and holistic coaching styles of sports coaches and the awards received in sports at the
regional level. But, there are no significant relationships between the coaching styles of sports
coaches and the awards received in sports at the national level.
