We know that coaches matter, which is why we’d like to gain a better understanding of the perspectives of athletic coaches and instructors across the nation. Our National Coaches Survey: Building Safer Sport Together asks coaches to share their thoughts and experiences so we can work together to create safer, more supportive environments where all sport participants can thrive.
Help Us Build Safer Sport
Take our National Coaches Survey and shed light on important topics related to:
- Coach satisfaction
- Burnout
- Norms and behaviors
- Abuse and misconduct
Requirements
We want to hear from a range of coaches and instructors including head coaches, assistant coaches, specialty coaches, and instructors in any sport. We also want to hear from coaches involved in all levels of play, from community recreational athletics to nationally and internationally competitive programs.
We encourage you to participate if you:
- Are 18 years of age or older and
- Have coached any sport in the United States in the last five years
The survey will take around 20 minutes to complete. Responses will be accepted through November 12, 2025.
Survey responses will be completely anonymous. We will not gather names or other identifiable information. No individual responses from this survey will be shared; instead, they will be reported in aggregate along with the responses from other coaches across the country.
