摘要

在美国,青少年体育教练缺乏强制性的健康和安全培训,这是一个问题。青少年体育组织在很大程度上依赖志愿者为他们的项目提供人员,缺乏教育使教练没有准备好处理出现的健康和安全情况。本研究探讨宾州西北部青少年运动教练安全教育的现况。对三个地点的青少年体育教练和管理人员进行了采访。研究结果显示,该地区的健康和安全教育总体上缺乏一致性。有管理机构或有额外教练经验的青年体育教练比没有管理机构或有额外教练经验的青年体育教练接受了更多的健康和安全教育。管理人员表示,他们担心额外的培训要求会阻碍志愿者担任教练,理由是财务和管理方面的障碍。教练们一致表示,额外的教育不会阻止他们当教练。与会者认为,健康和安全教育对青年体育教练来说是重要和有价值的,因为它提高了青年体育运动的总体安全性。关键词:青少年体育;教练员教育;运动损伤

Financial and Management Barriers to Safety Education in Youth Sports in the United States
A problem exists with the lack of mandated health and safety training for youth sport coaches in the United States. Youth sport organizations rely heavily on volunteers to staff their programs, and lack of education leaves coaches unprepared to handle health and safety situations that arise. This study explored current practices in safety education for youth sport coaches in northwestern Pennsylvania. Youth sport coaches and administrators at three sites were interviewed. The results of the study showed an overall lack of consistency in health and safety education in the region. Youth sport coaches whose sport has a governing body or with additional coaching experiences had more health and safety education than those who did not. Administrators cited concerns that additional required training would deter volunteers from coaching, citing financial and management barriers. The coaches unanimously indicated additional education would not deter them from coaching. The participants viewed health and safety education as important and valuable for youth sport coaches to possess, as it increases the overall safety of youth sports. Keywords: youth sports, coach education, sports injuries, sports administration, injury prevention
