This concept paper was written to identify the importance of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in sports. In general, motivation is a drive for an individual to do any activity continuously. Intrinsic motivation can be observed when an individual does an activity for self-satisfaction (Brown, 2019). Meanwhile, extrinsic motivation is a motivation that leads to material things, recognition, encouragement, praise, peers, money, and others. Both types of motivation can be used to improve athletes' performance during training and competition. Motivation in sports should go hand in hand with other physical exercises so that the athlete's performance in a competition can be increased optimally. However, there is a question as to which motivation should be used in sports, whether it is intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, or both.
