| Summary: | Statement of the Problem: The purpose of this study was to develop a model undergraduate preparation program for women athletic coaches and to investigate the status of existing programs in southeastern colleges and universities. The study's findings and model program were intended to stimulate personnel in institutions of higher education to initiate and expand course offerings and learning experiences in coaching women's sports. In addition, the model was developed to provide guidelines for establishing certification requirements in interscholastic coaching. Conclusions: The study revealed that although most of the responding southeastern senior institutions offered programs or courses for prospective women coaches, some needed additional implementations to comply with Title IX. The model program was designed, with Title IX in mind, for implementation in southeastern institutions. Coaching programs with high standards are imperative if the needs of prospective and in-service women coaches are to be met and if the quality of coaching in women's athletics is to be upgraded. If certification standards for interscholastic coaching are to be established, a cooperative effort among higher education and state and national secondary athletic associations is necessary. | |
