Abstract
The aim of the present work is to analyze the relations between the level of trait anxiety, success perception and injuries in young football players. The sample is composed by 72 young football players. All the football players were administered an auto-report questionnaire that was gathering information of the injuries. For the evaluation of success perception, the Questionnaire of Success Perception (POSQ) was administered and for trait anxiety, the Test of Trait anxiety in sport (SCAT) was used. Results indicate that anxiety reveals a significant relation to the number of injuries and to injuries produced during the matches. A negative relation is noticed between anxiety and success perception. It was impossible to confirm the role of the success perception, to modulate the effect of the anxiety trait on injuries.
