Abstract

Background: Passing and crossing efficiency are recognized as key factors in football performance, yet their contextual influence in Southeast Asian competitions has been underexplored. The 2024 Mitsubishi Electric Cup offers a vital setting to examine how these technical indicators affect team tactics and rankings within the region's evolving football landscape.Aims: This study aims to analyze team distribution performance through accurate passes, pass success rates, and crossing accuracy, and to determine how these variables relate to team rankings and tactical strategies in both offensive and defensive phases.Methods: A quantitative approach was employed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis. Data were collected from official tournament databases. The independent variables were accurate passes, pass success rate, and crossing accuracy, while team ranking served as the dependent variable.Results: Data from ten teams were analyzed. Thailand recorded the highest pass success rate (85%) and passing volume (3,373 passes), showing strong possession control. Vietnam achieved the highest crossing accuracy (60%), indicating effective wide-play. Correlation analysis revealed a moderate relationship between pass success rate and crossing accuracy (r = 0.65, p < 0.05). Regression results confirmed that pass success rate significantly predicted passing volume (R² = 0.45, p < 0.05).Conclusion: Teams with higher pass accuracy demonstrated superior control and competitive performance, while crossing efficiency was more context-dependent. Coaches and federations should emphasize structured passing drills and possession-based play, integrating crossing strategies selectively. Future studies should apply AI-assisted tactical modeling to enhance distribution and performance analysis in regional and global football

Abstract

Excess body fat among overweight university students is a growing health concern associated with increased metabolic risk and reduced physical well-being. Combining exercise with intermittent fasting (IF) has emerged as a promising strategy to improve body composition. This study examined the effects of jogging with IF and weight training (WT) with IF on body fat reduction in overweight male university students. Using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, 34 participants (aged 19–21 years; BMI > 27 kg/m²) were randomly assigned to jogging + IF (n = 17) or WT + IF (n = 17). Both interventions were performed for four weeks, three to four sessions weekly, during fasting hours before iftar. Body fat was assessed using the InBody test, while dietary compliance was monitored through the Red Secret app. Both groups showed significant reductions in body fat (p < 0.001). The jogging + IF group achieved a greater mean reduction (3.52 ± 0.37; 12.96%) than the WT + IF group (3.20 ± 0.23; 11.59%). However, between-group differences were not statistically significant (Welch's t = -2.039, p = 0.052), although the effect size (Cohen's d = -0.699) indicated a moderate-to-large practical difference. Both interventions effectively reduced body fat with comparable overall outcomes.

Abstract

Perspective. Traditional martial arts are increasingly incorporated into higher education as competitive and co-curricular activities; however, empirical evidence explaining how pedagogical practices influence psychological readiness and performance remains limited, particularly within culturally embedded martial traditions such as silat. Problem. Much of the existing literature prioritises biomechanical or performance-oriented perspectives, offering limited insight into the pedagogical and psychological mechanisms through which training is translated into effective competitive outcomes. This gap risks reducing silat to a culturally neutral sport and overlooks its educational and cultural foundations. Method. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between pedagogical practices, psychological readiness, and competitive performance among Malaysian university silat athletes, with particular attention to the mediating role of psychological readiness and the relative contribution of culturally grounded pedagogy. A quantitative, cross-sectional research design was employed involving 312 silat athletes from public universities in Malaysia. Data were collected using validated questionnaires and analysed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM). Results. The findings indicate that pedagogical practices have a strong, positive relationship with athletes’ psychological readiness, whereas psychological readiness, in turn, significantly predicts competitive performance. Pedagogical practices also demonstrate a weaker but significant direct effect on performance. Mediation analysis confirms that psychological readiness partially mediates the relationship between pedagogy and performance. Conclusions. Among pedagogical dimensions, cultural–philosophical integration emerges as the strongest predictor of psychological readiness. In conclusion, the study provides empirical evidence that pedagogical quality, particularly culturally grounded pedagogy, plays a central role in shaping psychological readiness and enabling consistent competitive performance among university silat athletes. Future research should adopt longitudinal designs, incorporate objective performance indicators, and extend this pedagogical–psychological framework to other traditional martial arts and cultural contexts.
