Objectives: The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the mental well-being of tennis umpires and the perceived threat of COVID-19, future anxiety, and resilience. Methods & Materials: The descriptive-correlation study was conducted on 43 (mean age= 30.28±7.28) Iranian tennis umpires who were selected through convenience sampling. Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale, Conway et al.'s Perceived Threat Questionnaire, Zaleski's Future Anxiety Scale, and Connor and Davidson's Resilience Questionnaire were used to measure mental well-being, the perceived threat of Covid-19, future anxiety, and resilience, respectively. Pearson's correlation coefficient, Spearman's correlation coefficient, independent t-test, and Multivariate regression model were conducted to analyze the collected data. Results: Results showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between mental well-being and future anxiety and a positive and significant relationship between mental well-being and resilience. Also, results showed that the significant effect of resilience on predicting the mental well-being of tennis umpires. Conclusions: It seems that judges who have higher resilience experience higher mental well-being and possibly lower level of anxiety.
