This study aims to evaluate the effect of slice service training on the accuracy of tennis service strokes. Slice service is a technique that produces a lateral spin, creating a curved ball trajectory that is difficult to anticipate and return, especially for intermediate players. Despite its tactical advantages, this technique is rarely given specific attention in tennis training programs. This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach involving 16 athletes from Caringin Tennis Club aged 18–23 years. The instrument used was the validated Hewitt's Tennis Achievement Test. The results showed a significant increase in service accuracy, with the mean score rising from 17.88 (pretest) to 44.00 (posttest). Paired sample t-test analysis confirmed a statistically significant improvement (p = 0.000). The data met the assumption of normality based on the Shapiro-Wilk test. These findings indicate that structured slice service training effectively improves stroke precision, motor coordination, and confidence during service execution. The study supports the importance of integrating specific technique-based training in tennis coaching, especially during the skill development phase.

Student-athletes often find themselves juggling the demands of schoolwork and sports, which can create much pressure and lead to feelings of stress and anxiety. These difficulties do not just make it harder for them to do their best in class or on the field—they can also have a long-term impact on their mental health. This research seeks to explore how psychological distress is connected to anxiety among student-athletes. This study used a descriptive correlational quantitative method involving 61 student-athletes of the Faculty of Sport and Health Education, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. Data were collected using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21) to measure psychological distress and the Sport Anxiety Scale (SAS-2) to measure sports anxiety through Google Forms. Data analysis used a normality test, Pearson correlation, and descriptive statistics with SPSS version 29. The results showed a strong and significant positive relationship between psychological distress and anxiety in student-athletes. Data showed 56.3% of student-athletes experienced psychological distress, and 50.6% experienced anxiety, indicating a relatively high prevalence of psychological disorders in this population. This study indicated that student-athletes who experience psychological distress are also more likely to feel worried, revealing exactly how impossible it can be to reconcile school and athletics. The findings underscore the particular mental health issues these students confront as they strive to keep up with both their academic and sports commitments. We therefore recommend the importance of integrated psychological interventions and tailored mental health support for student-athletes to help them manage stress and anxiety, as well as improve their academic and athletic performance.

Background Problems: For senior taekwondo athletes, a problem that often arises is the phenomenon of choking under pressure, where competitive pressure causes athletes to fail to manage stress and experience sudden changes in concentration. This condition occurs mainly in athletes with low levels of awareness, meaning they cannot maintain focus and self-awareness in high-pressure situations. As a result, the maximum potential seen during training is not realized on the field, which hinders the achievement of optimal match results. Research Objectives: This study aims to explore the relationship between mindfulness levels and choking under pressure in senior taekwondo athletes. Methods: This study uses a quantitative descriptive method involving 25 senior taekwondo athletes from the Victory Bandung Taekwondo Club. The instruments used in the study were questionnaires consisting of MIS to measure mindfulness and SAS, SCS, and ACSI-28 to measure choking under pressure. Results: The results of the study showed that the level of mindfulness of senior taekwondo athletes reached 74.1% with the highest indicator in awareness (78.7%), followed by refocusing (75.2%) and non-judgmental (68.4%), while the level of choking under pressure reached 67.6% with the highest value in ACSI (71.4%), followed by SAS (65.6%) and SCS (64%). Conclusion: This study concludes that the higher the level of mindfulness in athletes, the lower the tendency for them to experience the phenomenon of choking under pressure. Coaches and athletes are advised to incorporate mindfulness training into their psychological training programs to improve mental resilience and manage stress effectively to maintain optimal performance in competitive situations.

As a result, athletes often take actions that are detrimental to themselves, the team, and even the opponent. This problem ultimately results in athletes not being able to achieve their best performance. Therefore, good self-control is needed in this sport. Emotional intelligence allows athletes to manage emotions well. This research aims to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence and self-control in water polo athletes. The Descriptive method with a quantitative approach was used in the study involving 20 water polo athletes from Club Tirtamerta Bandung.

The results showed a significant negative relationship between self-efficacy and psychological stress in handball athletes (p < 0.05). Athletes with high self-efficacy tended to have lower levels of psychological stress, while athletes with low self-efficacy experienced higher stress levels. Factors such as competitive experience, social support, and coping strategies also contribute to athletes' self-efficacy levels. Self-efficacy plays an important role in reducing psychological stress in handball athletes. Athletes who are more confident in their abilities tend to be better able to manage stress in sports.

In martial arts sports such as pencak silat, physical, technical and mental abilities are required, but often the mentality of athletes is not considered very important by coaches. Pencak silat athletes are often faced with the pressures of competition, failure and stress that affect emotional stability. Growth mindset is believed to influence the way athletes deal with these challenges. This mindset encourages individuals to believe that abilities can be developed through effort and learning so that they have a positive impact on emotional management. The research method used is quantitative with a correlational approach. The instruments used in the study were a growth mindset scale and an emotion management scale given once to the sample. After the data was obtained, data analysis was carried out using the SPSS Version 26 correlation test. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant relationship between growth mindset and the level of self-confidence in pencak silat athletes. Athletes who have a higher growth mindset tend to have better self-confidence in facing challenges and pressures when competing. This is in line with previous findings which state that structured pencak silat training not only improves physical skills, but also strengthens mental and emotional aspects, and can increase athlete confidence. This study concludes that growth mindset and emotional management of Pencak Silat athletes in the preparation stage have a relationship between each other, where growth mindset affects the level of emotional management of Pencak Silat athletes. The findings confirm that psychological aspects, particularly growth mindset, play an important role in managing anxiety and supporting athletes’ performance in the training or competition arena.

After the data was obtained, data analysis was carried out using the SPSS Version 29 linear regression test. The results of the study showed that there was a significant influence of cognitive appraisal on stress coping as a management strategy based on gender differences in archery athletes. This study concludes that cognitive appraisal has a significant influence on stress coping based on gender differences between men and women in archery athletes from Bandung City.
