Resumen

This study aimed to assess the degree of social pressures and their relationship to sports achievement motivation among 51 randomly selected handball players from first-division clubs in Jordan. A descriptive approach was employed, and data were collected via a questionnaire, with analyses conducted using SPSS 26. The results showed that social pressure levels were moderate, with training pressures being the highest (M = 3.17; a relative importance of 63.40%), followed by family (M = 2.92; a relative importance of 58.40%) and public pressures (M = 2.32; a relative importance of 46.40%). No statistically significant differences were found in social pressures and sports achievement motivation among handball players based on experience (p > 0.05). While family and public pressures were not significantly correlated with motivation (p>0.05), training and overall pressures were positively correlated with motivation (p<0.05). The study found moderate social pressure among handball players in Jordan, with low public-related pressures and no differences based on experience. Motivation for sports achievement was high, with training-related pressures positively linked to motivation.
