Abstract

Aim of the study: Modern training is a complex process, and its effectiveness is influenced by many
factors. The concept of competence has appeared in various polemics for many years in the aspect of
what a modern combat sports trainer should be like. Usually, in sports, trainers are secondary
characters, but it is thanks to them that competitors break world records and win gold medals at the
Olympic Games. The aim of the research was to obtain knowledge about selected competences and
qualifications of boxing (trainers) coach.
Methods: The study was conducted on 50 person who have been combat sport trainers for at least 5
years.
Results and Conclusion: Specially designed interview questionnaire “Professional competences and
qualifications of trainers in selected sports and physical recreation disciplines” was used to examine
professional competences. It should be emphasized that access to coaches of the national team is
limited. The research revealed that the boxing coaches surveyed showed high competencies in all
areas of professional tasks studied. On the other hand, in the area of innovation and enrichment of the
training plan with new but diverse both general and special exercises, they showed higher
competencies than coaches of team games.
