The findings of the study showed that the democratic pattern was the least used pattern by Volleyball coaches in Jordan, immediately followed by the dictatorship pattern, while the flexible model was the least employed pattern by volleyball coaches in Jordan.

Moreover, the results of the study showed that the crisis management of volleyball coaches came with a medium degree and on all fields of study except for the readiness to struggle, where this field came with an average of 20722) .

Finally, the results revealed that there were significant differences among leadership patterns of volleyball coaches according to the variables of educational qualification, years of experience, and player position.
