“…Some of the researchers suggested the theory as basis for devising program curriculum of social skill learning in the context of youth development programs (YDPs) through sports ( Jones et al, 2017 ). School developed a three-phase procedure to assist experiential learning: briefing to define the experience, action to enable the expertise, and reflection to learning from past on the expertise ( Lower-Hoppe et al, 2020 ). This theory allowed us to utilize coaching social skill in career and academic development by mediating organizational climate.…”

“…According to organizational behavior theory, an organization’s procedures have an indirect influence on performance through organizational climate, but there is no direct effect on performance as a result of the indirect effect ( Lower-Hoppe et al, 2020 ). Organizational behavior theory is the basis for studying situations in youth sport programs that may have an impact on young people’s development.…”

“…It could mediate the relationships between coaching social skills, sports skills, and academic and career development. These relationships were studied before in different perspectives on determining the youth outcomes in sports organizations ( Lower-Hoppe et al, 2020 ). Sport is an effective tool, but it must be purposefully structured and enabled to achieve kids’ developmental outcomes.…”

“…Moreover, the connection between coaching social skills to students also received little attention. Some researchers found social skill coaching and sport coaching as organizational processes and found the impact of organizational climate on youth outcomes ( Lower-Hoppe et al, 2020 ). While outcomes were more generalized than specific, a gap arose in defining the outcomes.…”

This study focused on the role of program curriculum in building social skills and sports coaching in academic and career development in terms of sports humanities and sociology. Social skills coaching and sports coaching for the students are two significant factors that need to be considered by the universities around the globe to improve the organizational climate, which ultimately lead to better student’s career and academic development. This study utilized data from 308 members of the sports federation enrolled in different programs in the universities in China through a questionnaire for investigating such influencing factors. The data were analyzed using the structural equation modeling (SEM) technique using SmartPLS. This study found a substantial relationship of social skills with academic development and organizational climate. The relationship of sports coaching with organizational climate and career development is also discussed in this study. Furthermore, the organizational climate acts as a partial mediator between sports coaching and career development. However, this study revealed that organizational climate had an insignificant relationship with academic growth and organizational climate did not mediate between social skills coaching and educational development among students. While hiring the sports personnel, universities must consider the coach’s competency using effective methods such as physical tests, preassessments, and psychological tests. Second, the universities in China have to develop a culture of social skills and sports to improve academic and career development.

“…Preliminary testing of the Session Log tool provided guidance only for the reduction of the instrument. Since the completion of the pilot study, the Session Log tool has been refined, with construct validity and reliability tested (Lower-Hoppe et al, 2020). Further testing is needed to establish discriminant and convergent validity of the tool with external measures.…”

This study examined perceived staff implementation of program elements related to key programmatic design features of a community sport-based positive youth development (PYD) program for socially vulnerable youth. Previous research supports the ability of sport-based PYD programs to promote positive developmental outcomes, such as life skills. However, much remains unclear about the processes and factors that contribute to such outcomes. Specifically, there is a lack of understanding related to the implementation of key programmatic design features. Over the course of a 4-week sport-based PYD program, data were collected from 54 staff members at 60 time points. The degree of implementation related to key programmatic design features, including the program climate, curriculum usage, and quality of instruction were examined. Additionally, perceived implementation was compared across type and setting of sport activity. Analyses revealed that there was no significant difference in reported implementation for program climate, curriculum, and structure related to the type of sport (i.e., contact vs. non-contact sport). However, there was a significant difference in reported implementation of program climate and curriculum across the setting of sport activity (i.e., indoor vs. outdoor facilities). Implications for sport-based PYD program planning and management are discussed.
