The purpose of this study was to explore and discuss the lived experiences and stories of people of color male intercollegiate soccer coaches, and to make meaning of their experiences to better understand why there are a lack of people of color male coaches in the NCAA soccer community. Critical race theory served as the theoretical framework. Through the use of narrative inquiry, the researchers interviewed people of color male soccer coaches in the NCAA. The researchers analyzed, categorized, and coded into themes using procedures for conducting and analyzing narrative research. Several themes emerged from interviews with six people of color college male soccer coaches. In this article, the authors discuss two major themes, relationships and race, and provides implications for intercollegiate coaches and administrators as well as directions for future research.
