DETERMINING THE SPORTS PARTICIPATION MOTIVATIONS OF SKI ATHLETES
Abstract
The research was carried out to determine the motivation of sports participation for licensed skiers who have been actively working for at least 3 years within Bitlis, Erzurum, Hakkâri, Muş Youth and Sports Provincial Directorate. In the sample of this descriptive study, a total of 125 athletes between the ages of 11-19 were included. Frequency, percentage, and arithmetic average calculations were made statistically. Besides, according to normality test, since the data did not show normal distribution, the Mann Whitney U test was used for binary comparisons from nonparametric tests, and Kruskal Wallis H variance analysis was used to compare more than two groups. p <0.05 was considered statistically significant. The most important sub-dimensions of skating athletes' participation in sports are "Skill Development" (1,17 ± 0,327), "Moving / Being Active" (1,19 ± 0,365), "Physical Fitness" (1,25 ± 0,353), "Competition" (1,26 ± 0,392), "Entertainment" (1,28 ± 0,368), "Success / Status" (1,30 ± 0,356), "Team Membership / Spirit" (1, 32 ± 0.430) and “Friendship” (1,38 ± 0,458) respectively. While there was no significant difference according to gender and age variables, “Team Membership / Spirit”, “Friendship”, “Physical Fitness” and “Entertainment” sub-dimensions were found to be significant differentiation. As a result, it can be said to have an important role for ski athletes to have a sense of togetherness, to evaluate their leisure time, to have a healthy and high moral strength through sport.
