The objective of this study was to analyse the correlation between perceived leadership behaviours of the Multidimensional Leadership Model (MML) and the cohesion categories of the Carron Cohesion Model in professional handball players. The sample was composed by 112 players who answered the Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS2) and the Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ) questionnaires. The results obtained (r = from 0.307 to 0.634) show an association between the cohesion variable (ATG-T) and the perceived behaviours of the (MML). A cohesion tendency towards the task by the players is observed. Autocratic behaviour exceeds democratic behaviour and training and instruction behaviours obtain the highest values. We conclude that cohesion towards the task is predominant in high performance players and that the high demand of the category demands different behaviours from the coach.
