description The purpose of the current study was to examine attitudes towards lesbians and gay men among National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I, II, and III coaches. Coaches (N = 290) from NCAA Division I (21%), II (22%), and III (56%) member institutions representing 31 different sports completed the Attitudes towards Lesbians and Gay Men scale and a demographic questionnaire. Overall, coaches reported generally positive attitudes towards lesbians and gay men. No significant gender x division interaction was found with respect towards attitudes towards lesbians and gay men, Pillai’s Trace = .023, F(4, 494) = 1.419, p = .227, ηp 2  = .011. Male coaches reported significantly more negative attitudes than female coaches, Pillai’s Trace = .046, F(2, 247) = 5.92, p = .003, ηp 2  = .046. When examining differences in age, older coaches (50 and older) reported significantly more negative attitudes than 30-39 and 40-49-year-old coaches (ps
