Sports Leadership
, A leader must have a good level of skills, qualities and characteristics in order to be a
successful and effective leader. A skill is the ability to do something well. A quality is a
distinctive attribute or characteristic possessed by an individual. A characteristic is a feature
belonging to a person which constructs and forms their identity to others.
P.E teacher
The role of a school PE teacher is to educate their students on sports whilst also allowing them
to maintain their exercise and physical activity levels. PE teachers are trained to teach many
sports to students such as football, basketball, rugby, cricket and table tennis.
Skills of an PE Teacher
Engagement
1)Engagement is when the leader keeps the focus and concentration of the group, they are
leading or coaching. PE teachers will need to maintain high levels of engagement with students
as it will then make the sessions more enjoyable for the students to participate in and this will
reduce boredom. During PE sessions, Teachers are constantly engaging with the entire class.
This causes him to get his point across to the entire class effectively. For example, during
football lessons during the first half of the lesson we will be taught something new in football
such as passing or shooting drills. However, in order to keep us engaged and not bored we will
then get into teams of 5 and play competitive matches. This will allow us to implement our new
skills and maintain interest in the lesson. A potential negative of this skill is that the leader may
be too stressed as they are trying to keep a difficult or unfocused group engaged with them.

Confidence
2)Confidence is when a leader has self-belief and is certain about this coaching. High levels of
confidence is good for PE teachers as this will allow them to speak confidently to students and
will be able to give good feedback and advice. Showing confidence will also allow students to
admire teachers as they believe they are knowledgeable and will then listen more often to
teacher’s advice and this builds trust. Teachers show the class that he is confident in his own
ability and then this causes those around them to feel confidence in themselves. In order to
create good confidence you must first have other elements in place such as Organisation,
experience, having clean objectives and understanding the demand of the role. A potential
negative of this may be that some students may see the leader as over-confident and arrogant.
Therefore, they may not listen and focus on their advice as they do not trust them fully.
