The purpose of this investigation was to examine a model of personal/situational factors, stress and burnout in high level male basketball coaches. One hundred and seventy (170) male high level head basketball coaches, responded to the following questionnaires: (a) Maslach Burnout Inventory (Maslach & Jackson, 1986), (b) Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen, Kamarck, & Mermelstein, 1983), (c) Coaching Issues Survey (Kelley & Gill, 1990), and (d) Social Support Questionnaire (Sarason, Levine, Basjam, & Sarason, 1983). The results showed that the conceptual model of the independent variables "coaching level", "coaching issues", and "social support", moderate variable "stress perception" and dependent variables, the three dimensions of burnout supported its basic construct and function, in this specific group of coaches (p<.001). The results suggested that the variables of this model can predict the burnout syndrome.
