The Research method used is descriptive with a correlative approach. Based on random sampling, 70 athletes in individual fields and 70 in team fields have selected from national super league. for data collection, two questionnaires of sport perfectionism, Dunn,et al (2006) and Brums, Terry et.al (2003) were used and for data analysis took Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test and Z Fischer. The results indicated that in team and individual fields, there was a positively significant relationship between concern over mistakes as a negative aspect of perfectionism and scores obtained on negative mood before competition, while such relationship was negative for vigor. There was no significant relationship between perfectionism of athletes of team and individual but depression and fatigueof team athletes significantly was better than individual athletes.
