The positive impact of emotional education programs in different areas and on different variables has been recognized. However, in the context of sport and more specifically in training stages, this phenomenon is relatively new and little researched. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to design, apply and evaluate the effects of an emotional education program in the Real Sociedad women's football team. The intervention was developed in 20 sessions of 90 minutes duration during 9 months, in which 19 football players between 15 and 19 years of age participated. A qualitative and phenomenological methodology was used to analyze and describe the players' perceptions of the learning and improvements experienced in the development of emotional competencies. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. The analysis of the responses was carried out through an inductive-deductive process from which 7 groups of categories were established that refer to the changes perceived in the group and in the individual, as well as the indications for the improvement of the program. The players made a positive assessment of their participation in the program and highlighted improvements in group cohesion, competitive mentality, group emotion management, emotional awareness, emotional regulation, self-confidence and self-esteem. This study provides further insight into the benefits of implementing emotional education programs and how they can be systematically incorporated into the holistic training of athletes.
Key words: emotional competence, emotional intelligence, educational intervention, football, female athlet
