This study investigated the association between personal characters (extroversion and introversion) and emotional intelligence with choose type of sport (team and individually) in adolescent girls. 100 adolescent female athletes (50 individually athlete, 50 team athlete) participated in this study. Schutte emotional intelligence and Eysenck personality questionnaire were used to assess the emotional intelligence and personality type. Independent t test and Pearson correlation test was used for data analyses. The results showed that team athletes are more extroverted than individually athlete. Also this study revealed that there is no significant difference between team and individually athlete in emotional intelligence and its sub-scales (emotional adjustment, emotional assessment and expression, use of emotional and social skills). The results also showed that there was no significant relationship between extroversion, introversion and emotional intelligence and its sub-scales.
