The gender equity achieved through Title IX legislation increased the number of women athletes; however, it failed to impact the percentage of female coaches. The number of female leaders and women in authoritative roles shows no evidence of growth. Since the creation of sport, women have been vastly underrepresented in athletics. This research focused on the barriers and obstacles that discourage women from choosing the coaching profession.The project explored, through a quantitative and qualitative methodological approach, the responses of current National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III women coaches representing the Northeast region of the United States. Data collection utilized electronic surveys administered to women coaches representing 234 colleges and universities. Using statistical analysis and open-ended responses gathered from the survey, the research provided insight regarding potential challenges and difficulties that discourage women from the coaching profession. To address the research question and hypothesis, a survey created by Rhode and Walker in 2008 was sent to 2,367 female coaches of NCAA Division III teams in the Northeast region of the United States. The survey was distributed in May 2020, and a total of 371 respondents agreed to participate in the study. The total responses on the 2020 survey averaged 258.A shortage of female coaches exists in athletics. The hypothesis for this research study suggested the barriers and obstacles that deter women from the coaching profession remain statistically consistent to the challenges identified in Rhode and Walker's study. Current research indicates the significant factors that prevented women from choosing the coaching field in 2008 continue to influence women today.Findings from the open-ended questions in the survey indicated additional barriers and obstacles that often deter women from choosing or remaining in the coaching profession include the need for work-life balance, inability to meet domestic responsibilities, provision of onsite childcare, eliminating work responsibilities beyond full-time coaching, equitable access for interviews, availability of mental health resources, and low self-confidence or interest in advancement.
