Abstract

The present study compares the pre-competition and post-competition anxiety for basketball male and female junior players. A group of 30 players (15 males and 15 females with age group of 15 - 18) were selected - from several clubs who are participating regularly in the local federation's junior championships - through purposive sampling technique. Data were collected from athletes using a Sports Competitive Anxiety Test "SCAT". The result of the study reveals that there was significant difference in 0.01 levels of pre-competitive anxiety and post-competitive anxiety among the male and female inter-university basketball players. The researcher recommends using advanced mental training to increase the players' self-confidence and decrease the level of their pre and post competition anxiety which in turn will be reflected on their performance positively.
