Management Guideline to Promote Mini Basketball in Yunnan Province
Abstract
Background and Aim: This research aimed to develop management guidelines for promoting mini-basketball in Yunnan Province. Despite the rapid development of the mini-basketball league in Yunnan, there has been limited research on its management. Our study sought to address this gap by providing practical recommendations for effective management strategies.
Materials and Methods: This mixed-methods study combined quantitative and qualitative approaches. The sample consisted of 166 teachers and coaches (83 male and 83 female) from 21 school basketball teams across Yunnan Province, as well as 30 male mini-basketball players aged 8–12. The sample was selected through a purposive sampling method to ensure representation of various regions and clubs. Data collection tools included questionnaires for teachers and coaches, in-depth interviews with students, and expert consultations. The mini-basketball questionnaire was validated by three experts using the IOC method, achieving a validation score of 0.95 and a reliability of 0.88 after testing.
Results: The results indicated that most participants had a positive perception of mini-basketball promotional activities. Using the POLC theory, we developed management guidelines for promoting mini-basketball in Yunnan Province. These guidelines included 20 planning elements (e.g., goal setting, policy support), 15 organizing elements (e.g., resource allocation), 17 leading elements (e.g., risk management), and 16 controlling elements (e.g., leadership training). Statistical analysis revealed no significant differences in the perception of mini-basketball between teachers and coaches.
Conclusion: The experts confirmed that the management guidelines for promoting mini-basketball in Yunnan Province are reasonable and practical. They align with policy objectives and hold significant value for managing mini-basketball in schools and sports associations. These guidelines are expected to have a positive impact on the promotion and development of mini-basketball in Yunnan Province.
