| Abstract | This research aimed to examine the management factors, athlete development, and excellence among Thai national pétanque athletes, as well as to analyze the influential factors contributing to their success. The sample consisted of 125 participants, including team managers, coaches, and athletes. Data were collected through a questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of .91. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression. The findings revealed that all dimensions of sports management were rated at a high level of importance, especially coaching and facilities. The regression model showed that facility and equipment (FE), sports organization and policy (SO), and sports fields (SF) significantly predicted athlete excellence. Additionally, sport participation (SP) and national/international competition (NI) significantly influenced athletes’ competitive achievement. These insights can guide evidence-based policy decisions, coaching resource allocation, and national training program development to enhance athlete development strategies and guide policy priorities in the context of Thailand’s elite pétanque program. |
