Participants included 16 males and 35 females from a Division III College. The Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire (Jowett & Ntoumas, 2004) was used to measure the coach-athlete relationship and the Sport Motivation Scale II (Pelletier, et al., 2013) was used to measure motivation. Two One-Way Independent Groups ANOVA were used to compare gender differences within each gender dyad. Female athletes with a female or male coach showed the relationship as more close and complementary than male athletes with a male coach. Male athletes with a male coach had more external motivation than female athletes with a female coach or a male coach. Female athletes with a female coach had less Introjected motivation than male athletes with a male or female coach. Female athletes with a male coach had less Introjected motivation than male athletes with a male or female coach.
