N2  - Effective communication has been defined as those interactions between teammates that result in enhanced team attributes and/or functioning. According to the conceptual framework of Social Exchange Theories, these exchanges should result in a wide variety of outcomes. The current research investigated the relationships between team communication and athletic satisfaction. Seventy-nine team sport athletes (41 men, 38 women) completed the Scale for Effective Communication in Team Sports (SECTS) and the Athlete Satisfaction Questionnaire (ASQ). Set correlation revealed several significant relationships between the SECTS and ASQ. These results offer further support to the meaning and significance of "effective" intrateam communication in sports
