Abstract :The aim of this study is to investigate basketball skill coaches who sell online basketball materials. Basketball skills training became a big sector with the development of the internet, social media, and new media. Basketball coaches are giving personal training to the basketball players and young kids, but also people who are not basketball coaches are giving personal training to professional basketball players and young kids. There is also a new way to teach basketball, which is called online coaching. There are many Web sites about teaching basketball skills with videos on the internet. The skills coaches have a YouTube channel and an Instagram account. Skills coaches use social media platforms to introduce themselves, make commercials, and lead the people to Web sites. On the Web sites, there are some options which are included in the membership system, taking lessons in real-time, online training and ongoing mentorship.
