Motivational climate and coach-behaviour seem important to understand sport involvement and participation. However, less is known about the potential interaction between these facets, and how it relates to athlete satisfaction. This study’s purpose is to examine the relationship between the perceived motivational climate, supportive coach-behaviour, and athletes’ personal treatment satisfaction among young soccer players. More specifically, we investigated the moderating effect of supportive coach-behaviour on the relationship between motivational climate and personal treatment satisfaction. Five hundred and thirty-two players (Mean age = 15.4 years, SD = 1.2) attending a Norwegian national soccer tournament participated in the study. Self-completion questionnaires were used to attain data. A linear regression analysis revealed that mastery of climate and supportive coach-behaviour were positively associated with personal treatment satisfaction. A negative association was found between performance climate and personal treatment satisfaction. Further, moderation analyses revealed that supportive coach-behaviour moderated the relationship between performance climate and personal treatment satisfaction. The findings indicate that a performance climate may not be as maladaptive when coaches provide supportive behaviour. The findings highlight the value of a further examination of the interaction between motivational climate and coaching behaviours, and its potential relations to young athlete’s sport experience.

One common feature among the selected players in talent development programs are the well-known relative age effect (RAE), characterized by a skewed birth distribution among selected players with an over-representation of players born early in the selection year. The aim of the present study was to examine the coaches and players’ perceptions of soccer-specific skills between players selected for national talent program born in the first half of the year compared to the players born in the second half of the year. A total of 753 elite male U 14 (N = 363) and U 13 players (N = 390) from 16 of 18 soccer regions in Norway participated. The results showed that players born early in the selection year considered themselves stronger and faster than late born players. Similar, coaches considered the players born early in the selection year stronger than players born late in the selection year. Neither the players or coaches considered the early born players as technically, tactically and mentally better. Within a talent development program, we argue that coaches and recruiters should be aware of differences in relative age, and thus prevent that late born players must compensate their physical disadvantages to be allowed into such programs.

Der Begriff"outdoor guidance" bzw. auf Norwegisch "veiledning" (Wegfuhrer) ist nicht mit einem deutschen Wort zu uberstzen. Ein Naturfuhrer- ein Wort, das sich vielleicht am ehesten als Ubersetzung eignen wurde- beinhaltet zu sehr die Wissensvemittlung bestimmter Natureignisse.Ein "outdoor guide" bzw. "veileder" hingegen ist jemand mit paedagogischen Kentnissen, der eine Gruppe bei einer Aktivitat in der Natur betreut. In Norwegen ist veiledning bereits seit den 1970er Jahren eine etablierte padagogische Arbeitsweise, in der der Mensch der Natur begegnet, aber auch sich selbst in der Natur aktiv wahrnimmt. Sie baut auf einer padagogischen Philosophie aug, in der die Natur wertvoll ist und der Mensch schonend mit ihr umgeht. Um das thema "outdoor guidance" Naher zu beleuchten, werden im diesen Artikel die Terminologie, die Traditionen und die didachtischen Komponenten genauer betrachtet.Ausserdem wird erabeitet, welche Fahigkeiten und Qualiteten ein "Outdoor guide" haben sollte, sowie welche Methoden und Techniken er nutzen sollte. Entscheidend ist letzendlich, dass der "outdoor guide" die Fahigkeit besitzt, adequate Methoden in der verschiedenen Situationen passend einzusetzen. Das setzT naturlich voraus, dass er das nøtige Wissen und die Erfahrung mit den unterschiedlichen Methoden hat
