Abstract
Abstract: The study was conducted to examine coaching behavior towards hockey players like their physical training & conditioning, technical skills, mental preparation, goal setting and its impact on player's performance. Methods: Eighty male elite hockey players were selected from Lahore, Pakistan through simple random sampling technique. Regression model was developed to examine the impact of these behaviors on performance of athletes by using critical level of 0.05. Results: The results of multiple regression analysis showed the signicant (p<0.05) effect of coaching behavior on athletes performance. From the considered behaviors physical training & conditioning, goal setting and mental preparation had positive and signicant while technical skills had insignicant impact on player's performance. From all of these behaviors the largest effect is of mental preparation (Beta=0.68). Conclusions: It is concluded that coaching behavior strongly affects the performance of hockey players. And most important is mental preparation of athletes as it highly effects on the performance. So the coaches should be trained enough to prepare the players according to requirements to achieve desired outcomes. Key Words: Athletes, Coaching, behavior, Performance
