The COVID-19 epidemic has caused many problems and had a huge impact on people's daily lives all around the world. In order to contain the virus, state governments have been forced to take a number of measures. Thus, global quarantine was introduced for the first time ever, which brought upon several new problems. Especially in the field of people's work lives, as changes were visible in all professions and coaching was no exception. The purpose and goal of the master's thesis is to find out how coaches performed their profession during the epidemic, if they did and how this affected their well-being and the work itself, depending on age, education and the selection/age group they coach.
165 units were included in the survey, but only 82 were relevant and resolved to the end. We were interested in demographic characteristics (gender, age, education, region of residence and the selection or age group they coach) and three questionnaires that measure the intertwining of one's own life with work as a coach, the psychological impact of the epidemic on them and satisfaction with life scale - SWLS. The data was analyzed with the statistical program IBM SPSS. Descriptive statistics were calculated for the entire sample and tested for statistically significant difference between groups at the 5% risk level using Independent T-test and One-Way ANOVA.
We found that older coaches connected more with their team during remote work than younger coaches and that younger coaches more often used the method of recording their own performance as a training method. The results of the analysis also confirm the difference in connection during the epidemic between the coaches of the younger selections and the seniors.
