| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to assess practice and challenges of coaches in identifying talent athletes of middle distance of Ethiopian athletics federation. The method of the study was descriptive. The subjects in this study were 70 athletes, 15 middle distance coaches, 9 club administrators and 4 Ethiopian Athletics Federation officers. Data were collected through questionnaires, interview and document analysis. Then the data gathered were analyzed and interpreted by using different statistical methods such as percentage. The result indicated that, the majority of the respondents replied that there is no talent identification method to join the club, the coaches have less educational background, athletes choose the discipline because of economic rewards rather than the talent they have and competition is the only means to identify talented athletes in most clubs. In general, from all this it can be concluded that practice and challenges of coaches in identifying talent athletes in middle distance race is poor because of coach’s qualification, clubs and federation do not have integrated work and smooth relation. Even the clubs and federation do not have talent identification procedure to recruit athletes. Therefore, giving in service training to the coaches, preparing talent identification procedure, give chance to athletes during planning, clubs fulfill all the training situation, having smooth relationship in between the concerned bodies like federation, clubs, other coaches to minimize the degree of challenges related to the topic | en_US |
