The goal of this research is to investigate how emotional intelligence and anxiety affect state netball players' performance satisfaction. A convenient sampling of Pahang netballers was chosen to participate in this survey. This study used a quantitative research approach. The Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2), the Sport Satisfaction Performance Scale (SSPS), and the Schutte Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT) were all filled out by the respondents on pencil and paper. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software is utilized to conduct the T-test, Pearson correlation, and linear regression analyses. According to the findings, there is no discernible variation in emotional intelligence between age groups or levels of participation. However, anxiety varies depending on the age group and degree of involvement. The results also demonstrate a robust and favorable relationship between anxiety and emotional intelligence. This research adds valuable insights to the expanding field of sports psychology, underscoring the crucial influence of Emotional Intelligence and Competitive State Anxiety on performance satisfaction within the context of netball. The results indicate that for improved performance satisfaction, it is essential for sports psychologists, coaches, and the athletes themselves to adopt approaches that nurture emotional intelligence while concurrently tackling the hurdles associated with competitive anxiety.
