Summary/Abstract: Sport occupies an important place in the life and development of children and young athletes, so it is necessary to provide them with a sufficient amount of positive experience in sports to ensure positive educational effects and reduce the possibility of giving up sports. The degree of attractiveness of the sports environment to children and young people is largely determined by the way in which the coach will structure the sports context, which goals will be prioritized and which values and attitudes will be promoted and which forms of leadership behavior will be chosen. If these aspects affect the formation of a positive sports experience in a young athlete, it will affect his motivation and choice to make sports an environment in which to develop and confirm their potential.
