Abstract

Background and aim. There are two types of sparring in silat: Silat olahraga and Silat tempur. Silat tempur is a combative sport focused on children, particularly beginners aged 7 to 13. The competition was introduced to prepare young athletes for sparring in Silat olahraga and to improve combative techniques among young silat exponents. The arena, which resembles a fencing platform, facilitates the execution of silat techniques during competition. This study aims to describe the development and implementation of Silat tempur as a preparatory competition for young athletes.Methods.  This study employed a secondary data analysis approach using data obtained from the Pertubuhan Seni Gayung Fatani Malaysia website and official competition records.

Its structured format contributes to athlete development and promotes the preservation and global recognition of Malay martial arts
