According to the Cochran formula, the sample size was 199 people who were selected randomly from the statistical community. To collect data, mental skills questionnaires Salmla's (2001), communication skills Barstoun (1990) and social capital Putnam (1999) with reliability (0.85, 0.86, and 0.87) were used. Ten Physical Education Teachers express their views on the tendency of management and planning to be factual and content validity. All data were analyzed using the statistical software package Social Sciences Version 19 and Liserl software version 54/8.
