“…Furthermore, it can be asserted that most of the sample in the present study did not have academic or professional training related to physical activity and sports, like those professionals who work in active or sports tourism (Grimaldi-Puyana et al, 2017), or those presented by Barranco et al (2015) who work as sports managers, which is against regulatory obligations (Catalonia, 2008;La Rioja, 2015;Extremadura, 2015;& Andalusia, 2016). The data of the present study are similar to those found in Turkey, where the profession is not regulated, and only 30% of sports employees have some training related to sports (Fisekçioglu & Duman, 2010;Sekendiz, Koçak & Korkusuz, 2009). Regarding sex, no predominant gender was found in this study; in fact, in view of the results, it could be said that there was parity MOISES GRIMALDI-PUYANA, VIRGINIA ALCARÁZ-RODRÍGUEZ, ANTONIO JESÚS SÁNCHEZ- OLIVER ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------…”

“…However, there are other studies in the sports field with fitness employees, whose age varied depending on the job position (Boned et al, 2015). For instance, the average age of sports technicians ranges between 20 and 29 years, whereas those who work in management and administration are between 31 and 40 years old (Fisekçioglu & Duman, 2010;INCUAL 2008). Furthermore, it can be asserted that most of the sample in the present study did not have academic or professional training related to physical activity and sports, like those professionals who work in active or sports tourism (Grimaldi-Puyana et al, 2017), or those presented by Barranco et al (2015) who work as sports managers, which is against regulatory obligations (Catalonia, 2008;La Rioja, 2015;Extremadura, 2015;& Andalusia, 2016).…”

“…Many studies have investigated job satisfaction of sport coaches (Chelladurai & Ogasawara, 2003;Drakou, 2006;Mokoena & Dhurup, 2019) or sport administrative personnel (Bradford Conant, 2017;Fiúekçioglu & Savaú Duman, 2010;Rintaugu, 2013). In particular, Drakou, Charachousou, Kambitsis, and Tzetzis (2008) investigated sport coaches' satisfaction in Greece among coaches of 11 different sports, using the Coach Satisfaction Scale (CSS) (Drakou, 2006) which explores nine dimensions of job satisfaction; supervision, nature of coaching, sport club's tactics, colleagues, salary, coaching conditions, athletes' performance, social dimension of coaching and professional development.…”

The aim of the study was to investigate job satisfaction and job commitment of coaches of the three major racket sports in Greece: tennis, table-tennis and badminton. One hundred and ten (N = 110) tennis (N T = 61), table-tennis (N TT = 31) and badminton (N B = 18) coaches responded to the Coach Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ), an eleven-factor instrument which assesses coaches' job satisfaction and to the Occupational-Organizational Commitment Scale, a six factor questionnaire which evaluates the different forms of occupational and organizational commitment. Forty six of the coaches were full-time (N FT = 46) whereas of the rest, sixty four were part-time (N PT = 64). The results of a series of t-tests, ANOVAs and correlation analyses revealed various significant differences and relationships. Some of the most important are that: a) tennis coaches and full-time coaches were more satisfied in most of the job satisfaction dimensions, b) significant correlations were noticed between "job satisfaction" and "organizational commitment" variables, c) "autonomy", was a predictor of "organizational affective commitment", d) "satisfaction with coaching job" was the unique predictor of occupational affective and "occupational normative commitment" and e) "team performance" was the only predictor of "occupational continuance commitment". Most of the results are in accordance with the existing job satisfaction literature however, further research is needed on human relation practices of National Federations and/or sport clubs associated with them, in order to have a better understanding of how certain practices and policies lead to higher levels of job satisfaction, organizational and occupational commitment among racket sport coaches.
