The aims of this research were to identify emotional intensities (positive, negative and ambiguous) for the competitive and non-competitive practice of opposition sports games and verify the existing relation with participants' sports trace. One hundred and forty seven college students took part in the research who completed the questionnaire GES (Game and Emotions Scale) developed and validated by Lavega March and Filella (2013). Generalized estimating equations showed significant differences (p <.001) in the emotion type variables, type of result and participants' sport trace. Positive emotions were experienced more intensely on the games, while negative emotions and ambiguous were lower than positive. The presence of previous experience was an import factors to variations experienced emotional, showing the players with more experience and competitive level lower scores on the emotions aroused during the opposition sports games. Results help guide future interventions by professionals due to the experienced practical experience.
