At the same time, it attempts to study how psychological characteristics differ among individuals and teams. It takes into account that individual performance depends more or less on mental preparations, psychology and personality of sportsmen. On the other hand, the performance in team sports depends upon cohesiveness, personal bindings, openness, agreeableness,conscientiousness and team-spirit. Hence,the need to study the psychological variables that affect the personality and influence the individual talent and collective performance.
