`
`he amendment to the identification of goods has been accepted and entered.(cid:160) Applicant’s statement that the goods are intended to be used by
`players and coaches for sports coaching is noted.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`pplicant’s arguments regarding the refusal to register the proposed mark under Trademark Act Section 2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C. Section 1052(e)(1),
`on the basis of mere descriptiveness, have been considered, but are unpersuasive.(cid:160) The following refusal is made final.
`
`(cid:160)M
`
`ere Descriptiveness – Section 2(e)(1)
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`pplicant seeks to register SPORTSCOACH for an archival and training system comprised of a camera, computer and related software, namely,
`software for analysis and improvement of sports and sports-related technique.(cid:160) Applicant has stated that the goods are intended to be used by
`players and coaches for sports coaching.
`Registration is refused because the proposed mark merely describes the function and intended users of applicant’s goods. (cid:160) Trademark Act
`Section 2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C. §1052(e)(1); TMEP §§1209 et seq.
`A mark is merely descriptive under Trademark Act Section 2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C. §1052(e)(1), if it describes an ingredient, quality, characteristic,
`function, feature, purpose or use of the relevant goods and/or services.(cid:160) In re Gyulay, 820 F.2d 1216, 3 USPQ2d 1009 (Fed. Cir. 1987);(cid:160) In re Bed
`& Breakfast Registry, 791 F.2d 157, 229 USPQ 818 (Fed. Cir. 1986); In re MetPath Inc., 223 USPQ 88 (TTAB 1984); In re Bright‑Crest, Ltd.,
`204 USPQ 591 (TTAB 1979); TMEP §1209.01(b).(cid:160) A mark that describes an intended user of a product or service is also merely descriptive
`within the meaning of Section 2(e)(1).(cid:160) Hunter Publishing Co. v. Caulfield Publishing Ltd., 1 USPQ2d 1996 (TTAB 1986); In re Camel Mfg.
`Co., Inc., 222 USPQ 1031 (TTAB 1984); In re Gentex Corp., 151 USPQ 435 (TTAB 1966).
`The term “coach” is defined below:
`coach
`
`coach (koch) noun
`1.(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) a. A motorbus. b. A railroad passenger car. c. A closed automobile, usually with two doors. d. A large, closed, four-wheeled carriage with an elevated exterior seat for the
`driver; a stagecoach.
`2.(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) An economical class of passenger accommodations on a commercial airplane or a train.
`3.(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) Sports. A person who trains or directs athletes or athletic teams.
`4.(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) a. A person who gives instruction, as in singing or acting. b. A private tutor employed to prepare a student for an examination.
`
`(cid:160)v
`
`erb, transitive & intransitive
`coached, coach·ing, coach·es
`1.(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) To train or tutor or to act as a trainer or tutor.
`
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`

`
`2.(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) To transport by or ride in a coach.
`
`(cid:160) [French coche, from obsolete German Kotsche, from Hungarian kocsi, after Kocs, a town of northwest Hungary (where such carriages were first made).]
`— coach ¹a·ble adjective
`— coach ¹er noun[1]
`Clearly, “coach” directly identifies a person who trains or directs athletes, as well as the action of training. (cid:160) The term “coach” is not suggestive
`with respect to the relevant goods, as applicant contends.(cid:160) The third party registrations applicant has made of record are noted, but do not
`represent official Office policy with respect to the descriptiveness of “coach.” (cid:160) Attached to this Office actions are numerous examples of the
`disclaimer of “coach,” found in the Office’s X-Search database (10/06/06).
`Also attached to this Office action are excerpts from websites showing use of the phrase “sports coach” to describe or identify a position or role
`(Google search engine; 10/06/06; montreal.craigslist.org; www.accentinteractive.net; www.flexxcoach.com; www.dailycamera.com), showing
`competitive need for the phrase.(cid:160) That not all of applicant’s consumers are sports coaches does not obviate the descriptiveness of the proposed
`mark.: if the proposed mark describes some of the intended users of the goods, the proposed mark is still descriptive.
`The proposed mark “SPORTSCOACH” describes the function of the goods, i.e., to coach users in sports, as well as some of the intended users
`of the goods, i.e., sports coaches.

`
`n certain circumstances, a petition to the Director may be filed to review a final action that is limited to procedural issues, pursuant to 37 C.F.R.

`
`When the UCLA Sports Laboratory surveyed I
`children forthe main reasons why they
`continue to participate in youth sports. the
`number one reason given was positive
`coach support. Research points to the
`benefits of getting kids to continue to
`participate in youth sports. noting that kids
`who stay in sporlstend to stay in school. get
`better grades and have fewer behavioral
`problems.
`
`It seems obvious that the key to a sucoemul
`youth sports program where the kids keep
`coming back is positive support. which the
`kids feel from their coach.
`
`E
`
`It is extremely important thatwe, as
`coaches. rememberthat a successful youth coach is defined not in terms of a won-loss
`record, but in terms of how many kids decide to return to play again nextyear. As a helpful

`
`Just as it is importantfor athletes to have written trainincl plans. each coach should haye his
`or her own written training. or"|esson." plan. Many reasons exist for haying a plan. but one
`reason is help a coach defend against lawsuits for injuries suffered by an athlete.
`
`Injured players have many ayenuesto sue a coach. A coach may be sued for"battery'. both
`by hisfher own players. and by opposing players or otherswhere. for instance. a coach
`physically grabs a player. official or an opposing player. This can happen. for instance. in a
`situation where tensions and emotions are running high in a game and the coach acts
`inappropriately. A coach may even be found to be criminally negligent. with both fines and
`potential criminal liability imposed. for certain types of acts. The most obvious ofthese is
`where a coach instructs one of his or her athletesto engage in a behaviorknown to cause
`serious risk of harm to an opposing player. such as using a helmetto "speaf' the other
`player. In such instance. the coach may be found to have directed the action and have
`vicarious liabilityforthc ensuing injury.
