The purpose of this qualitative instrumental case study was to explore how immigrant youth develop a leadership identity through sport participation. Data were gathered through two in-depth individual interviews and one group interview with 15 immigrant youth in central North Carolina. Five major themes emerged through microlevel and macrolevel analyses: (a) immigration, (b) challenges in the new country, (c) facilitators in the new country, (d) sport participation, and (e) leadership. These themes contribute to an understanding of how immigrant youth develop a leadership identity. Findings of the study revealed that immigrants leave their country for several reasons, with war and family being the primary ones. Participants shared how, after moving to the new country, they faced many sociocultural and economic challenges. The immigrant youth also identified some facilitators played a central role during their adaptation process, especially coaches who used the youth's sport participation to inspire them towards effective leadership and positive interactions with the mainstream society. Participants expressed how sport participation helped them define leadership as a set of dispositions and skills. Findings indicate that development of a leadership identity for immigrant youth who play sports is complex. This study has several implications for schools, community-based organizations, and youth sport clubs that provide programs for immigrant youth. Based on this study, it is clear that sport participation can help immigrant youth (a) develop a range of leadership dispositions and skills, (b) increase confidence in social interactions, (c) set goals for the future, (d) serve as role models for teammates and family members, and (e) be a change agent in their family and communities as they move through the stages of leadership identity development.
