“…Congruent with previous literature (e.g., Harwood & Knight, 2015;Sheridan et al, 2013), the current results suggested that the social support received from others such as fellow players, coaches, parents, other family members, and friends is an important resource which can be utilized by athletes. Adding to these previous findings and advancing theoretical knowledge, the current study also identifies that those people providing support during the transition to senior sport may provide specific types of support dependent on their role and the contexts in which they interacted with the athletes.…”

“…One common factor from both research and theory is the importance of the presence of support from others (e.g., Harwood & Knight, 2015;Pummell et al, 2008;Sheridan, Coffee, & Lavallee, 2013). The support provided can include informational (e.g., tactical or technical advice), emotional (e.g., showing concern for athlete), esteem (e.g., bolstering a person's feeling of competence or self-esteem), and tangible support (e.g., assisting with travelling to and from events; Sheridan et al, 2013).…”

“…Estas contradicciones podrían explicarse tomando en consideración el contenido de la interacción paterno-filial en el contexto deportivo más que la presencia/ausencia en una competición o la práctica compartida/no de deporte. Desde esta perspectiva, cuando el apoyo parental es percibido como negativo, este se relaciona con la aparición de ansiedad competitiva en etapas de formación (Hellstedt, 1990;Kaya, Sari, Tolukan, y Gülle, 2014;Passer, 1988), pero cuando se percibe de forma positiva predice la vivencia de emociones positivas en el entrenamiento y la competición (Atkins, Johnson, Force, Petrie, & Knight, 2015;Barber & Sukhi, 1999;Harwood & Knight, 2015). Así, es posible que la influencia del apoyo percibido por parte de los padres no sea una influencia uní-voca sobre la ansiedad y se encuentre mediada por los aspectos de contenido de la relación; aspecto que debe ser abordado en futuras investigaciones.…”

ResumenEl objetivo de este trabajo es indagar la relación existente entre la ansiedad competitiva de futbolistas y tenistas en etapas de formación y la práctica de deporte por parte de los progenitores. Participaron en este estudio 246 niños deportistas de tenis y fútbol con una media de edad de 10,43 años (DT= 2,42), que han sido evaluados con un cuestionario de datos sociodemográ-ficos y el cuestionario de Ansiedad Competitiva SAS-2 (Ramis, Torregrosa, Viladrich, & Cruz, 2010). Utilizando pruebas t de diferencias de medias independientes y pruebas no paramétricas, los resultados demuestran que los tenistas experimentan más ansiedad somática, mientras que los deportistas de menor edad presentan mayores niveles de preocupación. La práctica deportiva paterna o materna no tiene influencia sobre la ansiedad competitiva en etapas de formación en esta muestra, ya practiquen el mismo deporte que sus hijos o no. Se discute la posibilidad de que, más que la realización de la misma práctica deportiva en sí, sea el contenido de las expectativas de sus padres lo que puede guardar relación con la ansiedad competitiva.Palabras clave: ansiedad competitiva, iniciación deportiva, deportes con/sin colaboración, padres y madres. AbstractThe objective of this research is to investigate the relationship between competitive anxiety of tennis and football children athletes in formative stages and their parents' sport practice. 246 tennis and football children athletes participated in this study with an average age of 10.43 years (SD = 2.42), who have been evaluated with a questionnaire of sociodemographic data and the Sport Anxiety Scale-2 (Ramis et al., 2010). By using independent average samples of T tests and nonparametric tests, the results showed that tennis players experience more somatic anxiety, while younger athletes have higher levels of concern. Paternal or maternal sport practice has no influence on childhood competitive anxiety in formative stages in this sample, whether or not they practice the same sport as their children. Furthermore, it has been discussed the possibility that, rather than performing the same sporting activity itself, the content of their parents' prospects would be what may be related with the competitive anxiety.

(Corbin & Strauss, 2008), data were analyzed through a process of open coding, axial coding, and theoretical integration. The resulting grounded theory highlights the need to provide tennis parents with education that covers their introductory needs, organizational needs, development needs, and competition needs during childhood/mini tennis (5-10 years) and early adolescence/junior tennis (11-14 years). The theory is based on the notion that these needs can only be fulfilled if tennis parents are provided with formal education, and that the effectiveness of this education will be determined by parents' motivation to learn and the on-going support they receive from key stakeholders (e.g., coaches). The content, structure, and timing of parent education and support in high performance tennis centers are discussed. theory highlights the need to provide tennis parents with education that covers their introductory 7 needs, organizational needs, development needs, and competition needs during childhood/mini tennis 8 (5-10 years) and early adolescence/junior tennis (11-14 years).
