스포츠인권 대책에 따른 운동부 지도자의 인식과 대응전략 탐색

초록

This study explored changes in coaching practices and response strategies of sports coaches following the implementation of athlete-centered human rights protection measures. It used a phenomenological approach within qualitative research methods. Eight sports coaches were selected using purposive and snowball sampling, and in-depth interviews were conducted. Text analysis revealed the following findings. First, coaches perceived discomfort due to excessive protection of student-athlete rights, the need to move away from viewing coaches as potential perpetrators, and inadequacies in sports human rights education that did not reflect the realities of the sports field. Second, coaches’ response strategies to athlete-centered human rights protection measures included avoiding actions that could be misunderstood, being cautious with their words, and advising athletes to be careful with one another. Relationship changes involved treating athletes solely as athletes and distancing themselves from parents. Attitude changes showed that coaches adopted self-protective and avoidant behaviors to ensure their professional stability. Ultimately, these results indicate that while coaches empathize with the necessity of protecting athlete rights and have shifted towards more human rights-friendly coaching strategies they also experience a sense of disconnection from the field and a diminishment of their coaching authority. Therefore, future sports human rights measures should seek to balance sports human rights and coaching strategies.
