The purpose of this Danish language article by Søren Bennike, Claes Madsen, Peter Elsborg and Glen Nielsen is to present how Danish football puts numbers on good coaching behavior in children's and youth football (6-19 years) and at the same time convey the current status. The method is based on a larger research study, which shows that empowering coaching behavior contributes to creating continuity, whereas a dis-empowering coaching behavior – that is one-sidedly, results-focused and controlling/authoritarian – makes kids drop out of sports.
