Parameters for the Study of Socio-Emotional Competencies in Baseball Coaches
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Baseball coach training through competency-based education entails a change of paradigm in traditional education to cope with the challenges
posed by several contexts with the necessary knowledge.
Aim: To design a set of parameters for the study of socio-emotional competencies in U-15 and Junior baseball coaches at the Cerro Pelado Starters Sports Academy, in Camagüey.
Materials and methods: The research was conducted in the 2018-2019 academic year. A group of ten coaches selected by intentional sampling from the U-15 and Junior baseball categories at the Cerro Pelado Starters Sports Academy was
diagnosed after shortcomings observed in terms of team cohesion and feeling of belonging, which hindered adequate cohesion and interpersonal relations involving coaches, directors, and athletes.
Results: The study demonstrated that the social and emotional factors are present apparently in the sports scenario. Hence, postgraduate education must consider and assume committed development of socio-affective competencies, to train professionally competent coaches and directors.
Conclusions: The inclusion of the parameters designed and the ensuing diagnostic demonstrated the existence of theoretical-methodological shortcomings associated with socio-emotionally-competency-based education in the baseball team coaches and directors.
