[Grammar] Will be + ing / Will be

[Gaurav_2010]

Greeting Friends!

I need help in a sentence. The sentence is "Sam will be trained by a tennis coach in Canada for his role."

Can anyone please explain, why "Will be trained" is written? I'm expecting it to be "Will be training".

Thanks in advance

Sam will be training for his role: Active - Sam will be training, possibly without anybody's help. Train is used intransitively here, with a progressive form of the verb.

Sam will be trained by a coach for his role: Passive - the coach will train Sam. Train is used transitively here, with a non-progressive form of the verb.

Sam will be being trained by a coach for his role: Passive and progressive. The coach will be training Sam. Train is used transitively.
