ABSTRACT

The study investigates the relationship between basketball trainers' duties and their obligations to players at four universities in Guilin, China. Using a descriptive-comparative approach, data from 30 athlete respondents were analyzed quantitatively. Results indicate a significant correlation between trainers' duty in coaching games, training sessions, leading the team, and managing performance, and their obligation in terms of professional conduct. However, no significant relationships were found regarding legal obligations and health and safety. Trainers' performance of duties significantly impacts their adherence to professional conduct obligations. Notably, coaching games and managing performance emerged as particularly influential aspects. The study underscores the importance of trainers' roles in fostering professional conduct among players. Findings suggest areas for improvement in aligning trainers' duties with legal obligations and health and safety concerns. This research contributes to understanding the dynamics between trainers and players, informing strategies for enhancing player development and well-being within basketball programs.
