Athletes require resilience in order to handle obstacles and disappointments, especially in competitive sporting contexts. In Pakistan, Women University hockey players, their social pressures and expectations of their peers, coaches, and families may have a significant impact on their psychological adaptation and performance. Passion can become a mediator in this relationship as it can be viewed as a powerful disposition to do something that one loves and values. This study attempts to examine these dynamics in the culturally specific context of the women hockey teams of Pakistan.
