Risk Management in Sport for Athletes Towards A Successful Sporting Program

Abstract

 This paper delves into the realm of risk management in sports, particularly focusing on coaches' and athletes' perspectives within the context of the Henan Institute of Technology in China. It explores various dimensions of risk management, including creating a safe physical environment, providing adequate supervision, offering appropriate emergency care, and ensuring proper skills and methods of instruction. The study employs a non-experimental quantitative design, utilizing descriptive research methods and cross-sectional assessments. Data will be gathered through a self-made questionnaire, validated through expert evaluation and pilot testing. Statistical analyses, including frequency count, weighted mean, T-test/ANOVA, and Pearson’s r correlation analysis, will be conducted to examine relationships and differences among variables. Ethical considerations, such as informed consent and privacy, will be strictly adhered to throughout the study. The study aims to provide insights beneficial to coaches, student-athletes, athletic moderators, parents, and future researchers, ultimately contributing to the enhancement of risk management practices in sports settings. The implementation plan outlines strategies for pre-training preparation, training activities, and post-activity evaluation to ensure the effectiveness and applicability of risk management measures in sports events.
