This study was conducted with the aim of studying the levels of stress and aggression of athletes who participate in school sports Hentbol Youth Group competitions. In the 2015-2016 Education-Teaching Year, 143 athletes who participated in the School Sports Hentbol Youth Group competitions held in the province of Isparta took part as volunteers. In the study, the "Personal Information Form" prepared by the researchers applied the "Augusted Stress Scale" and the "Augusted Aggression Scale". The data analysis is based on the IBM SPSS 22.0 statistical package program. The study presented the scores that participants obtained from scales as the arithmetic average and the standard deviation x±sd. The Independent-Samples Test and One-Way ANOVA analysis have been applied to reveal the relationships between the scales. After the ANOVA test, the LSD test was applied as a complementary post-hoc analysis to determine the differences. As a result, the stress levels of 14-17-year-olds did not differ according to age, gender and sports age variables, while their levels of aggression did not differ significantly according to age groups, the verbal aggression according to gender and the sports age did not differ significantly in the subtitles of anger. It is believed that the hard bilateral struggles of the athletes who participate in this study during the match, the judgment decisions, the expectations of the audience of a good outcome from the match, and the desire to leave the match with good outcome in the athletes as the age increases, the pressure on the athletes can lead to an increase in the level of anger. As a result, athletes are also thought to have a tendency to act outside the rules of the match and fear of punishment and fear of punishment by the school they later represent and avoid physical aggression and react in the form of verbal aggression.
