Abstract

Abstract: The issues experienced by the female volleyball athletes in Kuantan
Singingi include their inability to perform optimally due to anxiety and a decline in
competitive motivation. This is caused by their inability to manage anxiety at a stable
level, which stems from low playing motivation. The author conducted research on this
issue with the hope that the findings could provide one of the best solutions to the
problem. During observations, the researcher identified that the volleyball athletes in
Kuantan Singingi struggled to deliver their best performance due to anxiety and
decreased competitive motivation. The objective of this study is to determine the
relationship between anxiety and competitive motivation on the performance of female
volleyball athletes from the Putri Angin Club in Kuantan Singingi. The type of research

The test instruments used are (1) an Anxiety Questionnaire and (2) a Competitive Motivation Questionnaire, both of which assess the athletes' performance in executing basic volleyball techniques. The data analysis utilized is the R-value test.
