Objective of the study was to rate and analyze the coaches' communicative skills in the adolescent deviant behavior control context and offer the adolescent deviant behavior control recommendations for the training and competitive service. Methods and structure of the study. In our analysis of the practical experiences of the coaches successful in the adolescent deviant behavior control aspects we have given a special priority to the coach-trainee communication building skills. We sampled for the study Sports School coaches (n=6) and tested them by the V.V. Boyko Empathy Test; A.V. Karpov Reflexivity Test Method and the K. Jung Personality Questionnaire. Results and Conclusion. The empathy test rated two subject low (21 points) and poor (13 points); and the other four moderate (22-29 points) on the empathy scale - to conclude that most of the sample is inclined for understanding and empathy in relationship. The reflexivity test showed the sample being able to analyze own feelings versus other people`s ones. And the Jung Personality Questionnaire rated 50% of the sample as extroverts prone to healthy leadership, easy-going in the interpersonal relations and able to persuade; 30% as Introverts and 20% as ambiverts (with extrovert and an introvert qualities) with fairly good communication skills. Therefore, the above tests found most of the sample having the key qualities for successful communication as required by the coaching service, albeit clearly needing special psychological support and consulting service to develop good adolescent deviant behavior control skills critical for their training and competitive services. Coaching services to the adolescent-deviant-behavior-prone teams are recommended to be designed and managed with a special attention to the personality qualities of the coach and trainees. It is very important for the coach to be sensitive to the individual progress needs, gifts and resources of young athletes to develop encouraging team climate, supportive and friendly relationships as a basis for the personality progress agendas. Such coach-trainee relationships help motivate the adolescent athletes for progress and success.
