• Resumen

  • The problems that occur in sporting contexts have a great importance when it comes to correcting the abilities to face the competition (Leo, González-Ponce &Sánchez-Miguel, 2015).Overcoming each of the problems that arise within a sports collective helps to meet the proposed objectives. For this, the perception of individual and collective sacrifice helps to increase the cohesion of the group and to direct all the behaviours to achieve good results in the team (Cronin, Arthur, Hardy & Callow, 2015).

    Therefore, it would be interesting have players who are capable of facing, resisting and overcoming adversities, in order to achieve better results (Schiera, 2005). From our point of view, the sacrifice of the players of the team can be a key characteristic to be successful in collective sports. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to check whether the individual and collective sacrifice of the players are able to achieve a resilient team in semi-professional team sports.
