A use about "That" "Parents and coaches need to demonstrate through their words and actions the values of sports THAT translate well into daily life, including respect for oneself and others, fairness, grace in defeat, humility in victory, and the virtue of self-denial." Does this "THAT" means "and" in this sentence? Like "Parents and coaches need to demonstrate .... and translate well ....". But I haven't found this kind of definition in dictionary. Thanks for your help!

"That translate well into daily life" is a relative clause. That is, it gives us more information about "the values (of sports)".

It does not translate into "and" because "that" is an indicator. It is pointing out that if the coaches and parents show such example to students. "That" would translate or show the students a better lifestyle.
