Coaching is a process in which the coaches influence on athletes, in order to take place their desired reaction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between leadership behaviors dimensions of choaches with success motivation, and motivation to avoid failure of women players of volleyball teams in Khuzestan Province. This research was a descriptive correlational survey method. The population study, were 122 women's volleyball team in Khuzestan in 1391 who were considered as examples by using census method. The data was collected by Chelladurai’ (1980) questionnaire on the leadership sport scale with validity and reliability 0/75 and 0/87 and Willis’ (1989) fitness attitudes questionnaire with validity and reliability 0/57 and 0/73. Data analysis, is carried out by descriptive and inferential statistics (the Pearson's Correlation Coefficient and Multiple Regression Analysis) in p ≤ 0/05. The results showed that coaches used to apply social support behaviors most and least authoritarian behavior. Similarly, there was a significant positive correlation between behavior training, social support and positive feedback with motivation success, and a significant negative correlation with players' motivation to avoid failure. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the behavior of social support, motivation, success, and avoid failure can be predicated. Therefore, the present findings suggest that coaches use the social support behaviors in order to provide the main motivation and the better functions.
