Abstract

Background: Gymnastics learning is considered an exercise programme that is aimed at improving the balance movement skills of kindergarten students. There is a limited gymnastic program to develop the kindergarten students’ balance and movement skills that meet the students’ needs and wants. Research Objectives: The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of gymnastics learning activities on the ability to move balance for kindergarten students. Methods: This research is an R&D, a movement and song gymnastics program for the kindergarten students’ balance. The participants involve 30 students aged 5-6 years. The validators were five experts focusing on the topic addressed. The first stage examines qualitatively articles, e-books, textbooks, and programme design. The second stage applies the Aiken’s V technique to assess the training program. The third stage analyses the assessment results. The fourth stage tests the training programme. Findings and Results: Based on the results of Aiken V’s analysis related to the movement and song gymnastics program developed, the overall score shows a range of 0.8 to 1.00. The programme is feasible and valid as a balance movement learning in kindergarten. Conclusion: The movement and song practice programs that have been prepared have good and valid content validity. The novelty of this study is to develop a gymnastics program integrated with the educational curriculum for kindergarten children. This includes designing activities taking into account the differences in each child's level of balance, strength, and motor skills. The programme will be applied to students to know the effectiveness of the movement and song training program for gymnastics on the balance ability of kindergarten students.

Abstract

Background Problems: Anxious athletes often doubt their ability to manage stress and achieve goals. Developing self-efficacy is vital as it enhances performance and confidence while reducing stress. There is a research gap in exploring the relationship and differences between self-efficacy and pre-competitive anxiety across athletes in sports with varying characteristics. Research Objectives: Considering the lack of research on self-efficacy in Pencak Silat, this study aims to deepen understanding of how self-efficacy impacts performance, particularly when comparing individual and team categories in Pencak Silat. Methods: Sample selection used the Purposive Sampling technique, with criteria including individual and team categories in Pencak Silat consisting of 30 athletes, including 15 individual and 15 team categories from Pencak Silat PON Jawa Barat and PAL Kota Bandung athletes. The research design used is a correlation and comparative study, with data collection employing a quantitative method. The measurement tools used were the CSAI-2R and the GSES. The data were analysed using correlation tests to measure the relationship between anxiety levels and self-efficacy, and independent sample t-tests were used to compare differences between the two groups in terms of anxiety and self-efficacy level. Finding and Results: The results of the correlation test show that there is a relationship between anxiety and self-efficacy with the Pearson value for teams (-0.532) and individuals (0.771), and the results of the hypothesis show a significant difference between the two categories (0.001 < 0.05). Conclusion: The study found significant differences in anxiety and self-efficacy between individual and team pencak silat athletes, emphasising the need for tailored psychological approaches to enhance performance. Future research could explore targeted mental training programmes, track changes over time, or examine other martial arts or athlete groups for deeper insights.

Abstract

Background Problems: There are not many studies concerning a method combining resistance training (RT) and small-sided games (SSG) shortly on young soccer players. Research Objectives: This study reveals the acute impact of the combination of resistance training with small-sided games on the physical capacity of young soccer players. Methods: Quasi Experiment with a pretest-posttest group design, involving sixty students of Undiksha Soccer Student Activity Unit using a simple random sampling technique. Thirty samples each entered the combined group (SSG+RT), the small-sided games only (SSG) group, and all were involved in training four times a week (four weeks). Two sessions of aerobic endurance, agility, and leg muscle power (LMP) data collection were conducted in the field. Data were analysed using one-way MANOVA assisted by SPSS 16.0 with a significance level of 5%. Findings and Results: One-way MANOVA test showed F value = 61.390 and sig. value 0.000 (p < 0.05), which means there was a significant effect on aerobic endurance, agility, and LMP in both groups. There was no difference in aerobic endurance results in the SSG+RT and SSG groups with a sig. value of 0.092 (p > 0.05), but there was a difference in the two groups in agility with a sig. value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) and LMP with a sig. value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: To improve aerobic endurance, agility, and LMP simultaneously, a combined training method can be implemented, namely integrating resistance training into small-sided games. The current findings can help to improve the performance of young soccer players in a short time. However, it is necessary to study more deeply other variables that have the potential to affect the results of the current findings, such as longer training times.
