The paper considers the problem of motivation development in high school hockey players, examines the structure of motivation and its features, identifies the main components of motivation, and defines terminology. The paper identifies the features of high school age, which play an important role in the formation of professional self-determination.

The aim of the work was to study the scientific and methodological foundations for the development of motivation of hockey players of old school age.

Organization and methods of research. An important structure in the formation of motivation is the emotional sphere of a person. The peculiarity of this structure consists in its variability of functions depending on the object under consideration, as well as in the heterogeneity of the cause of affect. I think the fact that our emotions are physiologically conditioned is well-established. However, the stimulus that triggers emotional reactions may have different origins.

The results of the study and their discussion. The implementation of the first mechanism is based on the creation of conditions in which an athlete independently comes to the formation of motives and goals, from which motivation is subsequently formed, as well as which help to maintain effective sports motivation. To implement such a scheme, using the example of a hockey team, it is possible to organize team activity outside the training program that would bring them together, various options are possible here, for example, joint camping.

Conclusions. Various aspects of sports motivation, ways to maintain its optimal state, the formation of new motives using multidirectional methods, as well as the formation of motivation through the satisfaction of multi-level needs are considered.
