Introduction:

The need to broaden the professional perspective of volleyball coaches to favor their social mission requires processes like sports intelligence. This is a necessary working and teaching tool in training and sports competitions by the team, the opponents, and the competition setting.

Aim:

To compare the professional performance of volleyball coaches in the field of sports intelligence.

Materials and methods:

This pre-experimental design study used theoretical, empirical, and mathematical statistics research methods. The sample consisted of 25 volleyball coaches.

Results:

The comparative analysis demonstrated that sports intelligence, as part of complex transdisciplinary studies, contributed to more comprehensive, sustainable, and successful processes that could meet the requirements of modern volleyball, in contrast to the traditional forms used today. The implementation of a set of courses with a transdisciplinary scope allowed volleyball coaches to enhance sports intelligence and improve their professional performance.

Conclusions:

Sports intelligence was enhanced as a process, through a set of transdisciplinary courses, and evidenced cognitive, instrumental, and attitudinal changes in volleyball coaches, with repercussions on the coaches’ ability to implement this tool.
