The sample of this study was composed of coaches (n=978) registered with Trabzon Province Turkey Football Coaches Association (TUFAD), and the sample of the study consisted of voluntary coaches (n=198). The questionnaire technique was used as the data collection method. Leadership and problem-solving skill scales were administered to the participants. A significant relationship was found between leadership behaviours in sports and problem-solving skills (R=.588, R-2=.345; p<.001). It was determined that with standardized regression coefficients (beta)=.588; t=.4,878; p=.000, leadership behaviour in sports positively affected problem-solving skills, and that it explained 34.5% of the total variance. It was determined that there were positive and weak, moderate, and high relationships between football coaches' leadership behaviours and problem-solving skills levels and that coaches' leadership behaviour in sports approaches had a considerable effect on their problem-solving skills.
