To analyze the data to be gathered, SPSS 27 will be used for the data management of the responses. Outcome: Coaches' primary role is to motivate athletes to improve their performance. Coaches are also responsible for building sound, positive relationships with their athletes because they significantly impact the athletes' training processes, performance outcomes, and many aspects of their personal lives. Conclusion: Players’ sex, age, and year level can be directly influenced by their coaches’ attributes, leadership, and emotional state. The tennis coaches' leadership style in various dimensions is relatively high as assessed by the student players. The personal attributes of the players have the impact of the quality of leadership of the coaches.
