Although chess has been officially recognized as a sport by various national and international institutions, many parties still doubt its status as a physical activity worthy of being called a sport. This case study uses a qualitative approach with in-depth interview techniques, observation, and documentation studies of several informants, including chess athletes, coaches, PERCASI administrators, and the general public. The results of the study indicate that the stigma against chess arises from the assumption that sports must involve intense physical activity. However, the data also reveal that chess has competitive, strategic aspects, and significant cognitive benefits. This study recommends the need for public education and integration of chess into the physical education curriculum to reduce stigma and increase appreciation of chess as a complete sport.</p> Popy Krisna Br S Milala I Putu Dipta Ari Murti Made Andika Wahyudi Dhodik Hidayat Copyright (c) 2026 Popy Krisna Br S Milala, I Putu Dipta Ari Murti, Made Andika Wahyudi, Dhodik Hidayat https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 101 106 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.6108 Analisis Manajemen Pembinaan Prestasi Atlet Disabilitas (Studi Kasus pada Cabang Olahraga Atletik) https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/5083 <p>Penelitian deskriptif kualitatif ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dan mendeskripsikan manajemen pembinaan prestasi atlet lari di National Paralympic Commite Indonesia (NPCI) Provinsi Sumatera Utara. Metode yang digunakan adalah survei dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui angket, wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi.

A busy academic life needs to be balanced with supporting facilities that can maintain student fitness and health, one of which is through sports activities. At the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), the availability of sports facilities is uneven between the Ganesha and Jatinangor Campuses. Ganesha Campus, as the campus with the most comprehensive facilities currently, has adequate sports facilities such as Saraga, which includes a gym and swimming pool. In contrast, ITB Jatinangor Campus does not yet have similar facilities of equal quality, resulting in inequality perceived by students. This study aims to identify the perceptions and needs of ITB Jatinangor Campus students regarding sports facilities. Using a quantitative descriptive approach through questionnaire distribution, it was found that most students rarely use the available sports facilities due to limitations in quantity, quality, and accessibility. Outdoor facilities such as sidewalks and running tracks are utilized more often than indoor facilities that require permits. Fifty-two percent of respondents considered the current facilities inadequate and hoped for the construction of new facilities such as swimming pools and gyms. These results recommend the need for the development of more inclusive and sustainable sports infrastructure to support student health and well-being.</p> James Brian Lee Mikhael Xylon Santosayuwono Kendra Shandyakiran Muhammad Fadhil Dhiya Ulhaq Copyright (c) 2026 James Brian Lee, Mikhael Xylon Santosayuwono, Kendra Shandyakiran, Muhammad Fadhil Dhiya Ulhaq https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 117 123 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.6107 Survei Standarisasi Sarana dan Prasarana Olahraga di NPCI Sumatera Utara https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/5790 <p>Berdasarkan hasil observasi awal, kondisi sarana dan prasarana olahraga di NPC Provinsi Sumatera Utara saat ini masih sangat terbatas dan belum memenuhi kriteria ideal, yang menjadi kendala utama bagi para atlet dalam menjalankan aktivitas olahraga secara maksimal. Meskipun terdapat keterbatasan fasilitas, seperti lapangan voli duduk yang tidak memenuhi standar teknis, antusiasme atlet tetap tinggi karena cabang olahraga tersebut sudah sangat memasyarakat di lingkungan mereka. Masalah ini diperparah oleh minimnya program kerja di bidang keolahragaan dari pihak pengurus, sehingga intensitas latihan dan kegiatan atlet menjadi berkurang secara signifikan. Melalui pendekatan penelitian kualitatif dengan metode survei, data dikumpulkan dari pengurus dan atlet melalui wawancara, dokumentasi, serta observasi langsung untuk memetakan jumlah dan kondisi riil fasilitas yang tersedia. Temuan data menunjukkan ketimpangan yang cukup mencolok pada standarisasi fasilitas; pada cabang bulu tangkis, ditemukan 14 sarana yang tidak standar berbanding dengan hanya 12 sarana yang layak pakai, sementara pada cabang bola voli, terdapat 5 sarana yang dikategorikan tidak standar dan hanya 4 unit yang memenuhi kriteria standar nasional. Secara keseluruhan, potret fasilitas di NPC Sumut menunjukkan perlunya evaluasi mendalam dan peningkatan infrastruktur guna mendukung prestasi atlet difabel secara lebih profesional dan berkelanjutan di masa depan.</p> Mian Sirait Agung Nugroho Copyright (c) 2026 Mian Sirait, Agung Nugroho https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 124 133 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.5790 Strategies for Achieving Female Athletes https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/6109 <p>Achievement strategies are crucial in the process of achieving success, especially for female athletes who often face the dual challenges of gender stereotypes and limited institutional support. This study aims to identify the obstacles faced by female athletes at UIN Walisongo Semarang in achieving sporting achievements, the strategies used to overcome these obstacles, and the influence of these strategies on the development of female athletes' achievements. The study used a qualitative method with a case study approach, through in-depth interviews and participant observation of female athletes in the campus environment. The results showed that the main obstacles faced included gender discrimination, limited facilities, and a lack of social and institutional support. The strategies implemented by female athletes included increasing intrinsic motivation, building social networks, and adapting to less supportive environments. The analysis showed that these strategies were effective in increasing athletes' self-confidence and motivation, although institutional policy support is still needed to create a more equal ecosystem. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of institutional interventions and cultural changes to support female athletes' achievements in general.</p> Rasyidah Hamsa Abdurrahman Ahmad Rida Falin Azzahroh Copyright (c) 2026 Rasyidah Hamsa, Abdurrahman Ahmad Rida, Falin Azzahroh https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 134 142 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.6109 Dinamika Pembinaan Olahraga Adaptif: Evaluasi Pilar Prestasi Balap Kursi Roda pada Tingkat Regional https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/5839 <p>Penelitian ini secara komprehensif mengevaluasi sistem pembinaan atlet balap kursi roda di NPCI Provinsi Sumatera Utara sebagai media pengembangan potensi bagi penyandang disabilitas yang terbukti mampu mencetak prestasi meningkat setiap tahunnya. Menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi terhadap sembilan responden, studi ini membedah lima pilar utama: pembinaan, perekrutan pelatih, perekrutan atlet, program latihan, serta sarana prasarana. Hasil temuan menunjukkan bahwa aspek perekrutan atlet melalui sistem promosi-degradasi dan penerapan program latihan yang sistematis (mencakup fisik, teknik, hingga mental) sudah berjalan sangat baik. Namun, penelitian ini juga mengidentifikasi beberapa tantangan krusial, seperti minimnya Sumber Daya Manusia (SDM) dalam pembinaan, serta proses perekrutan pelatih yang kurang optimal karena belum semua memiliki sertifikasi standar internasional. Terkait fasilitas, meskipun sarana dan prasarana dinilai sudah memadai secara teknis, kondisinya dianggap kurang ideal karena tempat latihan masih berstatus sewa. Secara keseluruhan, dedikasi atlet dalam mengatasi keterbatasan fisik telah memberikan kesadaran bagi masyarakat, namun diperlukan pembenahan pada aspek manajemen pelatih dan stabilitas kepemilikan fasilitas agar prestasi olahraga paralimpik di Sumatera Utara dapat terus terjaga secara profesional dan berkelanjutan di masa depan.</p> Wagito Purnomo Agung Nugroho Copyright (c) 2026 Wagito Purnomo, Agung Nugroho https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 143 151 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.5839 Student Expenditure Patterns in Participating Recreational Running Events: A Sports Microeconomics Perspective https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/6110 <p>This quantitative study analyzed the spending patterns and microeconomic factors influencing the decisions of 100 high school students to participate in recreational running events. The results showed that the average expenditure per event reached IDR 300,000, allocated for registration fees, transportation, meals, and sports attributes. Based on multiple linear regression analysis, peer influence and perception of registration fees significantly influenced spending levels (p &lt; 0.05), while monthly pocket money did not. This indicates that student consumption is driven more by social and emotional values ​​than financial capabilities. Furthermore, this event had a positive impact on surrounding MSMEs. This study contributes to the microeconomics of sports and recommends organizing more student-friendly events.</p> Faisal Adam Rahman Amin Pujiati Sugiarto Sugiarto Mohammad Hasan Basri Copyright (c) 2026 Faisal Adam Rahman, Amin Pujiati, Sugiarto Sugiarto, Mohammad Hasan Basri https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 152 158 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.6110 Analisis Faktor Pendukung Keberhasilan Atlet Tenis Meja Disabilitas https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/5840 <p>Penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi secara mendalam sistem pembinaan prestasi olahraga tenis meja di NPCI Provinsi Sumatera Utara pada tahun 2025 dengan menggunakan instrumen angket yang melibatkan enam belas responden, yang terdiri dari sepuluh atlet, tiga pelatih, serta tiga pengurus sekretariat. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan capaian yang sangat positif secara keseluruhan, di mana indikator atlet berhasil menempati urutan tertinggi dengan persentase sebesar 91% sehingga masuk dalam kategori sangat baik. Sementara itu, performa pelatih dinilai berada pada kategori baik dengan nilai 73%, menunjukkan kompetensi yang cukup solid dalam mendampingi atlet difabel. Di sisi lain, indikator program latihan serta ketersediaan sarana dan prasarana masing-masing memperoleh skor 70%, yang meskipun secara angka lebih rendah dari aspek pelatih, tetap diklasifikasikan ke dalam kategori sangat baik menurut standar penilaian penelitian ini. Secara kolektif, temuan ini mencerminkan bahwa ekosistem pembinaan tenis meja di NPCI Sumatera Utara telah berjalan secara sistematis dan efektif, meskipun tetap memerlukan optimalisasi berkelanjutan pada aspek manajerial pelatih dan pembaruan fasilitas guna mempertahankan tren prestasi atlet di masa depan.</p> Dicka Ardanta Agung Nugroho Copyright (c) 2026 Dicka Ardanta, Agung Nugroho https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 159 165 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.5840 Public Perception of the Indonesian National Team's Naturalization Policy https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/6111 <p>This study analyzes public perception of the Indonesian national football player naturalization policy based on a survey of 101 respondents. The analysis was conducted using three indicators: cognitive (understanding of goals), affective (positive attitudes), and conative (tangible support). The results show a very positive public perception: 69% strongly agree, 21% agree, 3% disagree, and 7% strongly disagree. This high level of acceptance indicates that naturalization is seen as a strategic step by the PSSI and the government to increase the national team's competitiveness on the international stage. This policy has succeeded in building public trust in the commitment to national sporting achievements. The public also views naturalization as an ideal long-term strategy when integrated with the development of local athletes. This is in line with the SPLISS framework (De Bosscher et al., 2006) that international achievement requires structured policy support. Overall, the naturalization policy is considered effective and well-received by the public as an instrument for improving Indonesian football achievements.</p> Fathan Baharudin Mead Asep Ramdan Afriyuandi Copyright (c) 2026 Fathan Baharudin Mead, Asep Ramdan Afriyuandi https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 166 173 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.6111 Identifikasi Status Kondisi Fisik Atlet Lari Sprint dalam Menunjang Kesiapan Kompetisi Paralimpik https://jurnal.stokbinaguna.ac.id/index.php/JSSB/article/view/5841 <p>Penelitian kuantitatif deskriptif yang dilaksanakan pada Mei 2025 di Stadion Unimed ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis profil kondisi fisik empat atlet lari sprint National Paralympic Committee (NPC) Sumatera Utara. Melalui rangkaian tes yang meliputi lari 300 meter, <em>sit-up</em>, <em>push-up</em>, dan <em>Multistage Fitness Test</em> (MFT), data diolah untuk memetakan kapasitas fisik setiap individu secara spesifik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas atlet, yakni sebanyak 50% atau dua orang, berada pada kategori "Cukup", sementara sisanya terbagi rata masing-masing 25% ke dalam kategori "Baik" dan "Kurang". Capaian fisik yang dominan pada kategori cukup ini dipengaruhi oleh rutinitas aktivitas fisik dan latihan mingguan yang dilakukan para atlet. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa meskipun aktivitas fisik harian sudah berjalan, diperlukan penguatan melalui latihan pendukung yang dilakukan secara rutin dan terstruktur setiap hari guna mengoptimalkan kondisi fisik mereka menuju level yang lebih tinggi. Secara keseluruhan, potret ini menjadi bahan evaluasi penting dalam merancang program latihan yang lebih efektif bagi atlet lari disabilitas.</p> Rezza Surya Amri Agung Nugroho Copyright (c) 2026 Rezza Surya Amri, Agung Nugroho https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-03-31 2026-03-31 4 2 174 182 10.55081/jmos.v4i2.5841
