Abstract This phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of winning coaches in student broadcasting competitions, focusing on how they navigate the challenges, responsibilities, and rewards embedded in the coaching journey. Using in-depth interviews with purposively selected participants, the research captured the emotional, technical, and logistical dimensions of their roles. Thematic analysis revealed that coaching extends far beyond instructional delivery; it is a deeply personal and transformative process marked by resilience, sacrifice, and a strong sense of vocation. Findings indicate that coaches confront multifaceted challenges, including limited resources, time constraints, emotional exhaustion, and high-performance expectations. Despite these, they persist through adaptive strategies, emotional awareness, and student-centered approaches. The experience reshaped their professional identity, instilling values of patience, flexibility, and reflective practice. Coaches reported profound growth—not just in technical coaching skills but in empathy, purpose, and pedagogical depth. This study underscores the need for institutional support structures that recognize and sustain the emotional and professional investment of coaches. It contributes to the broader discourse on educational leadership, mentorship, and teacher development, offering insights relevant to policymakers, school administrators, and educators worldwide. It affirms that behind every winning broadcast team is a coach whose lived experience is a powerful testimony of passion, perseverance, and transformative teaching.
