The results of the research showed that sports games improve the physical, mental, cognitive and social conditions of the elderly, and the design of sports games should be done according to the needs of the elderly and with the participation of the elderly. Active virtual reality games are beneficial for the physical and mental health of the elderly. However, almost all consumer-level VR games address the general user without considering the characteristics of the elderly, such as their specific needs regarding cognitive and safety aspects. Mechanics, dynamics and aesthetics are of special importance in game design for the elderly. Regarding the design of games and sports, the following can be considered. 1) Choosing sports or sports activities suitable for daily life activities in order to provide meaningful and motivating sports fields for the elderly. 2) Building adequate learning structures by providing options that combine challenge and support. 3) Determining appropriate effect-response relationships for different rehabilitation goals depending on the stage of the disease. 4) Development and evaluation of appropriate educational environments. 5) Designing sports games based on the needs of the elderly. The use of game-based tools for rehabilitation is rapidly expanding. Cognitive rehabilitation through video games is a new and emerging topic in cognitive science. Sports games have the capacity to rehabilitate the elderly and it is necessary to research and evaluate the fields of game and sports development for this age group. Manuscript profile

The research community were experts and trainers of corrective movements. The participants were selected in a purposeful and snowball way. Eleven interviews were conducted, theoretical saturation was achieved in the ninth interview, but two more interviews were also conducted. The data were analyzed by thematic analysis. Three overarching themes including intra-individual, inter-individual and environmental were determined. The intra-individual theme included coach's characteristics (personal, psychological, moral), coaching knowledge (sports science, exercise and health science, practical) and the desire to grow and excel (continuous learning, internship, having a research spirit). The interpersonal theme included social relations (with athletes, families and colleagues), coaching skills (technical-educational, human-communication, perceptive-leadership) and management (planning, organizing and evaluating). The environmental theme included training situation (increasing physical capabilities, improving physical condition, improving mental health), role playing (model, specialization, consultant) and environmental conditions (students, sports goal, sports environment). In order to be able to fulfill their mission in the development of community health, the trainers of corrective movements should pay attention to the interpersonal and environmental components of coaching in this field in addition to the individual components and improve themselves so that they can provide more effective services.
