The researches documented by literature have tried to identify the mechanisms which drive sportspeople to achieve great performances. The goals of sports clubs and organisations, mainly oriented towards achieving performance, can only be reached through the sportspeople’s efforts. One of the reasons for which some are more efficient than others, is the quantity and quality of the efforts made by the sportspeople, efforts which are directly linked to motivation. To do well, handball players must be deeply involved in their work and eager to reach certain goals, from the simplest (such as the desire to beat their opponents in the training room) to the most complex ones (the desire to obtain a leading position in the greatest competitions).
