Sport of highest achievements is a multiple-factor system of training of high quality athletes who represent our country at representative competitions of various level: at the Olympic Games, the World Cups and continental superiority, at the international tournaments and so forth. Such athletes are a part of national teams of Ukraine, the national teams of sports and sports societies, a number of the strongest people of different regions of our country. The leading trainers who carry honorary titles “The honored trainer of Ukraine” are engaged in their preparation and are leading experts of the highest category from the sports. But unfortunately, most of the experts in training of highly skilled athletes, place the main emphasis on technical and tactical preparation, ignoring psycho-emotional training of the subordinates. And modern scientific researchers note that the main reason of defeats of our combat athletes at the international competitions lies in the psychological factor. Psycho-emotional preparation in sport of highest achievements, and especially in single combats, for today, does not receive proper attention that is the main factor through which a large number of athletes at official competitions aren’t capable to show the result, greatest possible for themselves and to occupy the first place on a podium. Therefore in this article, we made the analysis of modern scientific researches and scientific and methodological literature and allocated the psycho-emotional factors disturbing our athletes in their achievement of high results and also specified the ways of their overcoming. The prospect of further research should be the implementation of these recommendations in practice of the leading trainers in martial arts, for the formation of psychological stability of their children during the official competitions, as well as in preparation for them. We propose to use the obtained information for lectures and practical classes on the discipline “Psychology of sports”.
