ABSTRACT

Badminton, as a fast-paced and highly confrontational individual sport, requires athletes to maintain stable physical state and excellent psychological quality during competitions. Adolescent athletes in Haikou are in a critical stage of physical and mental development, with immature emotional regulation ability and weak pressure resistance. In formal badminton competitions, they are prone to negative psychological states such as pre-match anxiety, mid-match tension, post-error frustration and distracted attention, which seriously restrict the stable display of their technical and tactical level and affect their long-term sports career development. Based on the psychological characteristics of adolescent badminton athletes and the actual situation of local competitions in Haikou, this paper summarizes the common psychological problems of young athletes in competitions, analyzes the internal and external influencing factors of psychological fluctuations, and puts forward targeted, operable psychological regulation strategies. The research aims to help Haikou adolescent badminton athletes effectively cope with competitive pressure, improve their on-the-spot psychological adaptability, maintain stable competitive state, and provide practical reference for coaches to carry out systematic psychological training for young athletes.
