Abstract

Leadership is the ability to influence people for the achievement of the goals, being this leadership allocated by means of a high position in the organization or informal emergency within the structure (Robbins, 2007). In the sport, Samulski (2009) demonstrates the importance of studying aspects of leadership as it is a relevant item for the yield in sport. The majority of studies on leadership focuses on analyzing the perceptions of athletes about their coaches (LOPES et al, 2004; ROCHA AND CAVALLI, 2006; DIGNAMI, 2007; ARDUA and MÁRQUEZ, 2007; Polettini, 2009; ALBA et al, 2010; Brandão and CARCHAN, 2010; Lessa et al, 2013; CORREA, 2015) leaving many times aside the prospect of coach in relation to the subject. The general objective was to compare the perceptions of futsal coaches in different categories (sub9 and sub 15) in relation to leadership and motivation. The study was conducted with eight-side futsal coaches of the clubs that participated in a great tournament in the city of Curitiba in the modality of Futsal in the year 2017 the categories sub 9 (four trainers) and sub15 (four trainers). The study has two approaches, quantitative and qualitative analysis. In the quantitative approach was applied to relocation the questionnaire "Revised Leadership Scale for Sport " (RLSS), developed and validated by Zhang et al. (1997) after a review process of the "Leadership Scale for Sports" (LSS), developed by Chelladurai and Saleh (1980). In the Portuguese language, the validation of the "Scale of revised leadership for the Sport (ELRE)" was performed by Samulski, Lopes and Costa (2006), the data were analyzed descriptively (mean and standard deviation) for continuous data. The questionnaire was applied in selfperception of coach. To meet the requirements of the qualitative approach was applied to the instrument of the interview and the analysis was performed by means of content analysis, potential representatives were identified and coded. In the quantitative analysis, using the results of the questionnaires, we conclude that there are more differences than similarities between the coaches of the two categories in line with the initial hypothesis established. In the qualitative analysis, using the interviews, it was concluded that there are more similarities than differences between the perceptions of futsal coaches in different categories in relation to leadership and motivation, contrary to the initial hypothesis established. However, when analyzed only the dimensions related to leadership and motivation, it was found that there are more differences than similarities between the coaches of futsal in categories Sub9 and Sub15.
