The　questionnaire, Investigation on　the Needs for and the Constraints on Recreational Sports Participation of Junior High　Teaching and Administrative Staff, was applied to examine the reasons behind. 480　questionnaires were　distributed, and 436 were retrieved. The response rate was 91%.　Among the retrieved questionnaires, 400 were considered valid (83%). Methods used　for processing the data were descriptive statistics, t-test, univariate analysis of　variance, product-moment correlation. The research indicated that: 1. Among the needs for recreational sports, “to give vent to personal feelings” was　the primary contributor,　followed by “to enhance physical and mental health” and “to acquire the sense of accomplishment”. And as for the constraints that　prevented the subjects from participating in recreational sports, “social aspect”　was the major reason, followed by “opportunity aspect”, “experience aspect” and　“individual aspect.”　 2. Negative correlation was found between all the aspects of the needs for　recreational sports and the constraints on recreational sports participation and had　significant differences (p<.05 or p<.01). The lower the degree of　constraints on　recreational sports participation, the higher the needs for recreational sports. 3. Different “genders,” “ages,” “posts,” “teaching domains,” and “expenses on　recreational sports” had significant differences (p<.05 or p<.01) in the needs for recreational sports participation. 4. Different “ages,” “levels of education,” “teaching domains,” “marital and family　conditions” had　significant differences (p<.05 or p<.01) in the constraints on　recreational sports participation.
