Sammanfattning: The overall purpose of this study is to create an in-depth understanding of how coaches for children and young people in padel reflect about being coaches in the private sector in relation to the non-profitsector. To answer this purpose the following questions were asked: How do padel coaches experience that their leadership and training activities are affected or changed depending on whether they are hiredby a private or non-profit client? What contextual aspects do coaches state as reasons for this? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each sector according to the coaches? The empiric data in this study was collected through qualitative interviews via Zoom with six different padel coaches across Sweden who practices in the private sport sector. The primarily results demonstrates that the padel coaches generally experience several differences between the private and the voluntary sector and that these differences are both complex and difficult to handle. Some of the differences are connected to areas like education, quality in training, economic and inclusion aspects. Additionally, it shows that these differences could have an impact on the padel coaches and their leadership, but it could also affect the children practicing this sport
