Motivation is an essential element of human personality. It directs a person’s activity and makes it more or less dynamic. Without the desire to succeed, the other psychological features and abilities do not provide nearly so much influence on performance. The present study was conducted to examine the sports achievement motivation among wrestlers and judokas. Total fifty (N=50) male subjects, twenty five (N=25) wrestlers and twenty five (N=25) judokas who had participated at inter-college competitions from various colleges of Panjab University, Chandigarh were selected for this study. Achievement motivation was measured by applying Sports Achievement Motivation test prepared by Kamlesh, M.L. (1990). The age of the subjects was ranged between 19 to 25 years. The Mean, SD, MD, SEDM and‘t’-value were calculated to find out the significance of difference and direction of difference between wrestlers and judokas. The level of significance was set at 0.05. The results revealed significant difference with regard to the variable Sports Achievement Motivation between wrestlers and judokas. While comparing the mean values of groups in question, it has been observed that judokas have exhibited significantly better sports achievement motivation than wrestlers
