Abstract
Conference abstract: Participation in organised youth sports (OYS) has been recommended as an opportunity to increase young peoples’ physical activity (PA) levels. This is particularly pertinent for girls in adolescence, when PA declines sharply. While coaches can potentially influence PA levels of athletes, little research has explored coaches’ perceptions of themselves as PA promoters for their athletes.
