The aim of this work is to study the impact of a set of personal and team characteristics on the dismissal of managers (head coaches) in the top division of the Italian Football League during the seasons 2010-2019. We examine the probability of coaches’ dismissals by employing survival methods to explore the effects of covariates on coach tenure length. We capture the variation across the seasons and we assess the association between team/coach characteristics and coach dismissals. The set of coach characteristics includes both performance-related and non-performance-related variables. Performance variables include characteristics of teams able to analyze and measure coach or/and team typical performance. Nonperformance variables are a group of demographic characteristics related to managers and clubs

Abstract
The aim of this work is to study the impact of a set of personal and team characteristics on the dismissal of managers (head coaches) in the top division of the Italian Football League during the seasons 2010-2019. We examine the probability of coaches’ dismissals by employing survival methods to explore the effects of covariates on coach tenure length. We capture the variation across the seasons and we assess the association between team/coach characteristics and coach dismissals. The set of coach characteristics includes both performance-related and non-performance-related variables. Performance variables include characteristics of teams able to analyze and measure coach or/and team typical performance.
