dc.description.abstractUsing Major League Soccer as a unique dataset, this study examines the direct and indirect role of coaches’ experience in determining team performance. Inspired by labour market studies, we applied traditional indicators of team salary structure and, unlike previous studies, empirically test the hypothesis that coach experience affects the way in which team salary distribution influences performance. Our results suggest that coaches with experience as professional soccer players improve team performance directly but worsen the negative effect of a skewed salary distribution. Moreover, experience as a player is more important than coaching experienceen_US
