Motivation as an element of each athlete generates positive responses in practice, therefore, its evaluation in adapted athletes contributes to generating proposals that consider their sporting expectations. Aims: To identify the motives for sports practice in wheelchair tennis and goalball players. Method: Fifteen athletes: 5 for wheelchair tennis and 10 for goalball, belonging to different clubs in the region, answered the Questionnaire “Participation Motivation Inventory”. Results: 100% of wheelchair tennis players rated the items as very important: "I like to win", "I want to be fit", "I like to exercise", "I like action", "I like the competition "," I like to practice sports "," I want to be physically well ", and" I want to achieve elite status "; while in goalball there were the items: "I want to improve my skills", "I want to learn new skills", "I like competition", "I like to practice sports", "I want to improve my level", "I want to be physically well" and "I like to have fun". In both populations the items: "It is to satisfy my parents or friends" and "Due to the influence of the coaches or instructors" were valued as not important by 40% of the athletes. Conclusions: The motives most valued by wheelchair tennis players and goalball players are related to the overcoming factor and the personal factor respectively, while the socio-sports factor is the least important in their motivation for sports practice.
