The Effects of Perceived Coaching Ability and Coach-athlete Interaction on Sport Performance in Adolescent Martial Arts Sparring Athletes

To explore the effects of coaching ability and coach-athlete interaction on the athletic performance of youth Wushu sparring athletes, this paper selected 200 youth kickboxing players from Tianjin, China as the research subjects and randomly divided them into the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group adopted the integrated training method of coaching ability improvement and interactive communication, while the control group adopted the traditional training method. The research methods included a questionnaire survey, experimental observation, and data analysis, and the training effects were compared by evaluating the athletic performance and perceived coaching ability of the athletes in the two groups before and after training. The results showed that the athletic performance of the athletes in the experimental group was significantly improved, while that of the control group was only slightly improved. In addition, the perceived coaching ability of the athletes in the experimental group was significantly improved, and the quality of coach-athlete interaction was significantly enhanced (P < 0.05). The conclusion shows that the improvement of coaching ability and good coach-athlete interaction can significantly improve athletes’ sports performance, which has a wide application prospect.
