Abstract

Objectives In this study, we will investigate the fear of failure of team sports players, analyze in-depth what structure it is composed of, and explore the components that hinder players' performance.
 Methods To this end, this study adopted an open questionnaire and an in-depth interview method. The open questionnaire was surveyed on 260 middle, high school, and university team sports players, and the data collected through this were inductive content analysis. After that, in-depth interviews were conducted one-on-one interviews with nine team sports athletes with experience of failure to grasp in-depth the fear of failure of team sports players.
 Results The results of this study were categorized by deriving 5 general areas and 9 detailed areas through inductive content analysis of 582 raw materials collected through open questionnaires, and general areas were categorized as ‘Repeated mistakes’, ‘Injuries and Rehabilitation’, ‘Out of Competition’, ‘Self-Blame’, and ‘significant other's evaluation’. The detailed factors of the “Repeated mistakes” are repeated mistakes, and the detailed factors of the “Injuries and Rehabilitation” factor were incompetence and injury rehabilitation. The detailed factors of the “out of competition” factor were position threats and enter school/career threats, the detailed factors of the “self-blame” factor were guilt and shame, and the detailed factors of “significant other's evaluation” were leaders and parents.
 Conclusions Fear of failure is a psychological factor that adversely affects the player, instills negative emotions, and lowers performance. The results of this study revealed why players feel afraid. In order to find a solution to this and provide detailed psychological support to athletes, it is believed that members in the sports environment should take the lead together. This could ultimately lead to results that help the players improve their performance.
