Araştırmada Munusturlar (2014) tarafından geliştirilen 36 madde ve 7 alt boyuttan oluşan “Boş Zaman Eğitimi Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Veriler betimleyici istatistikler, bağımsız örneklem T test, tek yönlü varyans analizi ANOVA ve Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi testleri ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre; katılımcıların boş zaman eğitimi düzeyi ortalamanın altında iken (119,93± 15,05), alt boyutlar arasında en yüksek ortalamayı farkındalık alt boyutu (21,22 ±3,59) en düşük ortalamayı ise problem çözme (13,83±5,02) alt boyutu ortaya koymuştur. Sonuç olarak; antrenör adaylarının boş zaman eğitimi düzeylerinin ortalamanın altında kaldığı, belirli değişkenlerin boş zaman eğitimini değiştirdiği belirlenmiştir. Antrenör adaylarının eğitim programlarına boş zaman eğitimine dair derslerin eklenmesi ve dolayısıyla boş zaman eğitimine yönelik bilincin arttırılması önerilmektedir.
