(Anonymous) 2017-01-03 06:15 am (UTC)(link)I think the part that's not common is the part that's specifically a romance between the coach and the person they're coaching.
There's plenty of examples of bitter jaded sports veterans finding their happiness again, and plenty of examples of romantic sports movies, and plenty of romantic sports movies where bitter jaded veterans find their happiness again. but I can't think of any where their romantic interest is specifically someone they're coaching. I mean, I guess you could interpret Bull Durham that way, but it's definitely not canonical.
What's hard to figure out how much of what they're doing is because of them copying YOI, and how much of it is Lifetime doing what Lifetime does, in a sport where it's much easier to envision a het romance between coaches and players compared to something like baseball or basketball or whatever. It's certainly the case that all of those aspects on their own are part of sports movie DNA.
