Investigation of the Factors Motivating Veteran Tennis Players to Start Recreational Tennis According to Some Variables

Öz

The aim of this study is to examine the factors that motivate veteran tennis players to start recreational tennis. A total of 292 veteran tennis players, 163 male and 129 female, between the ages of 30-72 (mean age 43.4±9.9), who actively participate in tournaments, participated in the study. In order to obtain demographic information about the participants, a personal information form and the Factors Motivating Individuals to Start Recreational Tennis Scale (BRTBMFÖ) were used. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and the Skewness and Kurtosis tests were applied to confirm that the research data did not show a normal distribution. Non-parametric tests were preferred in the analysis of data that did not conform to a normal distribution. In the comparison between numerical measurements, the Mann-Whitney U test was used for paired groups, and the Kruskall Wallis test was preferred in multiple group comparisons. The Games-Howell test was used to measure differences between multiple groups. As a result of the research, the first three factors that motivate veteran tennis players to start recreational tennis were ranked according to their weights as “physical health”, “mental health” and “renewal-development”. A significant difference was found between the competition sub-dimension and gender and occupational status variables; between the recognition/social status and trying a new sport sub-dimensions and gender variable; between the renewal/development and career expectation sub-dimensions and gender, marital status, educational status, occupational status and perceived income level variables; between the mental health and being an example sub-dimensions and marital status; between the considering suggestions sub-dimension and marital status, educational status, occupational status variables; between the distancing sub-dimension and perceived income level variable; between the liking tennis sub-dimension and gender, educational status and occupational status variables (p<0.05). As a result, it can be said that the factors that motivate veteran tennis players to start recreational tennis are affected by some demographic factors.
