Resumen

El objetivo del presente estudio fue identificar las razones para el abandono en jóvenes jugadores de fútbol y comparar los motivos de abandono con los descritos en practicantes de otros deportes colectivos. Los sujetos (150 varones y 159 mujeres, con edades comprendidas entre los 14 y los 18 años) respondieron la versión española del Questionnaire of Reasons for Attrition de Gould, Feltz, Horn y Weiss (1982). La muestra estaba constituida por practicantes de fútbol (n=127), baloncesto (n=122), y voleibol (n=60). Las razones consideradas como más importantes para el abandono fueron el tener otras cosas que hacer, las malas relaciones con el entrenador y la falta de espíritu de equipo. También alcanzaron puntuaciones elevadas los motivos relacionados con el trabajo de equipo. Las razones a las que se otorgaba menos importancia se relacionaban con edad excesiva, recompensas y competición. Aunque el análisis discriminante puso de manifiesto algunas diferencias entre deportes, tanto el conflicto de intereses como los aspectos relacionados con el ambiente deportivo eran siempre las razones más valoradas para el abandono de la práctica.
