Nutritional status can determine the quality of athlete while competing and reducing the risk of illness and injury. Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between energy adequacy levels and the nutritional status of PSIS athletes. Methods: This correlational descriptive used a cross sectional design. Subjects were observed for a 2 months period. A total of 104 soccer athletes participated in thus study. The instrument of this research includes food recall and physical activity checklist for 3 x 24 hours, digital scale, Skinfold Caliper-Thickness and microtoise. Research variables include the level of energy adequacy, body mass index, and percent body fat. Results: The result showed that the energy adequacy level was 101 athletes (97.1%), normal nutritional status was 70 athletes (66.7%) and normal body fat percent was 71 (67.6%). The relationship between the level of energy adequacy and the percentage of body fat in PSIS athletes with a p-value of 0.56 (>0.05) and a correlation with an r value of 19%. The level of energy adequacy has a significant relationship with the percentage of body fat. Conclusion: it is recommended that dietary habit should be planned to improve the performance in sport fields. ]]>
