Abstract :

The present study aims at prioritizing performance evaluation attributes in Iranian Taekwondo National Team coaches in the view of national athletes. The statistical sample was the same as the statistical population due to the low number of participants (n=61). A researcher-made questionnaire including seven sections was used as the instrument. Face validity and content validity were approved by eleven experts including university professors, National Taekwondo Team coaches, international referees, and Taekwondo experts and academics. Cronbach’s Alpha (α=93/0) and composite reliability (83/0) were used to evaluate instrument’s reliability. SPSS software and Friedman test were used for data analysis and coaching criteria ranking, respectively. Based on the findings, the criteria can be listed based on the order of significance as technique skills, managerial skills, technical skills, professional relationships, psychological skills, socio-communicational skills, and championship experience. With respect to these results, athletic managers in Taekwondo Federation should focus on technique and managerial skills before the other criteria for more development of Taekwondo.
