<![CDATA[Parental support in the development of achievement is one of the crucial factors, especially for young children, as it can influence the development of their skills to achieve high performance. Parental involvement in supporting their child's achievement impacts various aspects, such as motivation, which is generally considered to involve the initiation, direction, intensity, and persistence of individual behavior, and also positively affects the child's confidence and independence in training. This study aims to examine the relationship between parental support and achievement motivation in young children in the sport of swimming. This research employs a quantitative descriptive method with a correlational research design. The population in this study consists of 17 swimming athletes from Delta Valley Cimahi, all of whom were included as the research sample.
