A lot of research has been published about sport and physical activity motivation, but mostly among able bodied. Even though in last fifteen years people started to work in this field of study among disabled population, still much has to be done to determine patterns of participation. Motivation to do sports among nondisabled population is examined between different gender and ages and between different countries and cultures, whereas on the other side, among those factors, we have to consider type of disability, is it congenital or acquired, which make things more challenging. Some people engage in sports because they want to compete, to prove them selves, to win and to achieve medals, others just want to have fun, keep their fitness and health, make friends and go for a beer after the game. Reasons are various, and fortunately sport is suitable to meet everyone?s needs. The purpose of this study is to examine psychosocial factors, respectively motivation of players from Balkan countries to engage in sitting volleyball. This geographical area is specific because of the war situation who affected some Balkan countries fifteen years ago. It will be important to find out what the players from these countries consider as strong reasons to engage themselves in sport of sitting volleyball and will that results be similar with the results of previous studies about sport motivation among physically disabled athletes. This information could be valuable not only to coaches, but for teachers as well and all others who work with people with disabilities in different institutions. They can use it to create strategies and more appropriate programs which will be approachable and health beneficial for everyone. People with disabilities are more liable for secondary health conditions (hypertension, type2dyabetes, obesity, stress, hypo kinesis, etc.) then their able bodied peers. By engaging in physical activities and satisfying exactly what they want of sport will be more effective in reducing the risks for those conditions. The relevance of this study is in introducing the sitting volleyball, as one of the sports for disabled to the wider population in Bosnia and Herzegovina and other countries from this study, because they still have prejudice about disabled and what they are capable of. The reasons for this is lack of knowledge, limited access for information, low interests and neglect of the state to present disability in general and possibilities disabled people have. People with disabilities are often more capable then the people without disabilities, have stronger personalities and stress management because by time they learned how to deal with it. I hope the information from this study will help others to get to know better this population of people and why they engage in sports. We have to consider how much effort and energy they have to invest into their way of life and to achieve great results. So, they deserve much more attention then they have been given till now.A lot of research has been published about sport and physical activity motivation, but mostly among able bodied.
