success of the professional becoming of a coach in football were analyzed.

Premier League teams of Ukraine took part. To achieve the goal set in the article, research methods were used: analysis of literary
sources, Internet networks, generalization of practical experience of leading domestic and foreign specialists, questioning and
methods of mathematical statistics.
Despite the interest of both scientists and practitioners to various aspects of the formation of the personality within the

psychological characteristics of the coach are the most significant. The degree of importance of various factors on the process of
professional development of the coach and the role of the sports career of a football player in the process of his becoming as a coach are determined.

of the determining factors for achieving the peaks of the professional skills of the coach.

model characteristics and develop programs and psych training aimed at the formation and improvement of the identified
psychological qualities
