This study aims to improve the learning outcomes of underhand passing skills through the application of play-based methods to fifth and sixth grade students at SDN 1 Bumijawa. This study used a quantitative approach with a One Group Pretest and Posttest experimental design. The sample in this study was 15 students. Data were collected through underhand passing skills tests conducted before and after treatment. The results showed a significant increase in underhand passing skills after students participated in learning using the play-based method. This method has been proven to be able to increase students' interest, active participation, and understanding of basic volleyball techniques. In addition, the application of the play-based method also creates a more enjoyable learning atmosphere and reduces student boredom. This method directly involves students in practical activities, so that students not only understand the theory but also can apply it in real games. Play activities carried out in small groups allow students to learn from each other and increase self-confidence. Improvement in underhand passing skills also shows that the play-based method is effective in developing fine motor skills needed in volleyball. Therefore, the play-based method can be used as an alternative strategy in learning Physical Education, especially volleyball material in elementary schools. This study suggests that Physical Education teachers implement play-based methods more widely to maximize student learning and learning outcomes, as well as increase their motivation and enthusiasm for sports. Furthermore, implementing play-based methods can also improve teamwork among students, a crucial aspect of volleyball. With a more fun and interactive approach, students are more motivated to practice and master the skills taught.

This study aims to determine the effect of cone drill training through the traditional Hadang game on improving the agility of fifth-grade students at SDN Banjaran 03. The research used a one-group pretest-posttest design with a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of 11 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a shuttle run test to measure students' agility levels before and after the intervention, which consisted of Hadang game training for four weeks. Data analysis using a paired sample t-test showed a significant improvement in agility after the intervention, with a significance value (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that the Hadang game, which involves quick movements and frequent direction changes, is effective in enhancing the agility of elementary school students. This study recommends incorporating traditional games as an alternative method in physical education classes to improve students’ physical fitness in a fun and educational manner.

Basketball is a dynamic team sport that emphasizes hand coordination, requiring players to score by shooting the ball into the opponent’s hoop. The game involves five players per team and demands mastery of several fundamental technical skills, including throwing and catching, dribbling, shooting, pivoting, and lay-up techniques. One of the highest individual achievements in basketball is being named the Most Valuable Player (MVP), a title awarded to athletes who demonstrate exceptional performance during a game or tournament. This study aims to analyze the determining factors behind an athlete achieving MVP status, specifically focusing on LeBron James from the United States basketball team during the 2024 Paris Olympics final match against France. The research employs a descriptive method with data collection through document analysis, particularly using official match statistics. The assessment includes both physical performance metrics—such as points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, turnovers, and fouls—and psychological aspects, such as mental toughness during competition. Statistical data from the match showed that LeBron James recorded 14 points, 6 rebounds, 1 block, 10 assists, 2 steals, 5 turnovers, and 3 fouls. His shooting efficiency was also high, with a 60% field goal percentage (6/10), 62.5% on two-point shots (5/8), 50% on three-point shots (1/2), and 100% on free throws (1/1). The findings indicate that high contributions in both offensive and defensive aspects significantly influence the MVP designation. This study concludes that MVP recognition is strongly supported by measurable statistical performance and recommends that coaches integrate performance analysis technology to maximize athlete potential based on individual needs.

This study is a literature review that discusses the relationship between sports and politics in historical and contemporary contexts. Through an analysis of 10 recent scientific articles and journals, it was found that sports function not only as physical activities, but also as a tool of diplomacy, a symbol of identity, and a means of political expression. This study identifies various forms of political intervention in sports, both at the institutional level such as FIFA and UEFA, and by countries and individuals such as athletes. In Indonesia, history shows that sports have been a medium for political struggle since the colonial era until now as a tool for imaging and policy diplomacy. This finding emphasizes that sports are not neutral spaces, but strategic arenas in the dynamics of power and global identity. This study provides theoretical and practical contributions in understanding the strategic role of sports in socio-political development and encourages broader interdisciplinary studies in the future.
