Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between self confidence  and long-range shooting decision-making in futsal players of the Bogor City Excellent Sport Club Team. The study used a quantitative approach with a correlational design to test the relationship between psychological variables and players' tactical behavior in the context of futsal matches. The research subjects consisted of 30 futsal players who were selected using saturated sampling techniques, so that the entire population was used as a research sample. The level of self-confidence was measured using the State Sport Confidence Inventory (SSCI), while shooting decision-making  was measured using the Scale Of Effective Decision-Making Sport (SEDMS) which was equipped with observation of player performance on the field. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software, including descriptive static, Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and Spearman correlation test as inferential analysis.  The results of the analysis showed that  the selft confidence level of futsal players was in the relatively high category, while the shooting decision-making ability  was in the medium category. The normality test showed that the SSCI data was normally distributed, while the SEDMS data was not normally distributed, so the relationship analysis was carried out using the Spearman correlation test. The results of the correlation test showed a very weak and insignificant positive relationship between self confidence and shooting decision-making  (r = 0.091; p > 0.05). These findings indicate that self-confidence  has no meaningful relationship with long-range shooting  decision-making. Thus, shooting decision-making  in futsal games is influenced by various other factors outside of confidence, such as technical readiness, tactical understanding, match experience, and match situational conditions.

Abstract

Agility is an important component of physical fitness in football as it supports athletes’ ability to change direction quickly, accurately, and with balance. Adolescent football players require optimal agility to enhance their technical and tactical performance. This study aimed to determine the effect of cone drill training on the agility of football athletes at Cibubur Youth Athlete Training Center in 2025. The research employed an experimental method using a pretest–posttest control group design. The sample consisted of football athletes from Cibubur Youth Athlete Training Center who received cone drill training as the intervention. Agility was measured before and after the intervention using the Arrowhead Agility Test. Data were analyzed using a paired sample t-test. The results showed an improvement in agility, indicated by a reduction in Arrowhead Agility Test completion time in the group that received cone drill training. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05). In conclusion, cone drill training has a significant effect on improving agility in adolescent football athletes and can be considered an effective training method within athlete development programs.

Abstract

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that can affect children's involvement in physical activity. Low physical activity and high sedentary behavior have the potential to negatively impact the health and fitness of children with ASD. This study aims to describe the level of activity patterns and sedentary behavior of children with ASD, measured objectively using an accelerometer.. Penelitian ini menggunakan observasional deskriptif dengan pendekatan potong lintang (cross-sectional). The subjects of this study were nine children with ASD aged 6-18 years who were recruited purposively at the YPAC Bandung Special School (SLB-D). Activity was measured using an accelerometer worn for seven consecutive days. The data were analyzed descriptively, including energy expenditure, Metabolic Equivalent of Task (METs) values, sedentary behavior (sedentary bouts and sedentary breaks), and daily step count. The results showed that the average energy expenditure was 997.54 kcal with an average METs value of 1.038, indicating a predominance of very light-intensity activities. Children with ASD spend most of their time being sedentary, with long periods of sedentary behavior. Although there are variations in the number of daily steps between individuals, the intensity of physical activity remains relatively low. The conclusion of this study shows that children with ASD have low physical activity and are dominated by sedentary behavior. These findings emphasize the importance of developing structured and inclusive physical activity programs to increase physical activity intensity and reduce sedentary time in children with ASD.

Abstract

The single art of pencak silat is a competitive category with extremely intricate motions that require exacting skill, steady pace, and simultaneous comprehension of movement. Due to their lack of coordination and expertise, new athletes frequently find it challenging to properly comprehend and grasp the movement sequences. This circumstance emphasizes the necessity of training techniques that can deconstruct intricate movement patterns through organized and methodical learning phases. This study aims to measure the efficiency of the progressive section method on the movement skills of standard single arts for beginner IPSI pencak silat athletes in Cilacap Regency. Standard single arts have a high level of movement complexity, thus requiring a gradual and structured learning approach. This study implemented an experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest model. The research sample consisted of 12 beginner athletes selected using a saturated sampling method. The research instrument was a standard single arts assessment format according to the PB IPSI guidelines, while data analysis used normality tests and t-tests. The results showed an increase in the average score from pretest to posttest as well as a significant difference between before and after treatment. This indicates that the progressive section method successfully improves the movement skills of standard single arts techniques of beginner athletes. This method facilitates athletes to recognize step-by-step movements, improve technical accuracy, and maintain consistent movement rhythm. Therefore, the progressive section method is recommended as a training technique in the development of beginner pencak silat athletes.

Abstract

Engaging students in physical activity through extracurricular programs remains a persistent challenge in educational settings, as declining participation rates continue to raise concerns among educators and health professionals. This study investigated the motivational factors underlying physical activity among Scouting extracurricular members at Kerinci 6 State Senior High School. A descriptive survey involving 40 participants (30 females, 10 males) measured both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation using a validated 28-item questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.92.. Results indicated that male participants demonstrated marginally higher scores on both motivation dimensions compared to their female counterparts; statistical analysis, employing independent samples t tests, revealed no significant gender differences (p > 0.05). Correlation analysis yielded noteworthy findings: intrinsic motivation exhibited a near perfect correlation with physical activity motivation (r = 0.975, p < .001), substantially stronger than the correlation observed for extrinsic motivation (r = 0.797, p < .001). These findings suggest that fostering genuine interest and personal satisfaction prove more effective than external incentives in promoting sustained physical activity engagement. Longitudinal investigations are warranted to establish the durability of these motivational patterns.
