Motivation is very important for students in following the learning process. Sport Education is a learning strategy that facilitates students and teachers with projects in the learning process and can increase student learning motivation.</p> <p><strong>Objectives:</strong> The aim of the research was to examine the influence of SE on learning motivation in MTs students.</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> The research method used in this research uses an experimental research method with a one-shot case study design. Participants in this research were 48 students at one of the MTs in Indramayu Regency. The instrument in this research used a student learning motivation questionnaire. The data analysis technique uses a one-sample t test.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> The results of this research obtained t count = 7.05 with Sig. 0.00 &lt; 0.05, which means that there is an influence of SE on the learning motivation of MTs students.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> This research concludes that there is an influence of SE on learning motivation in Junior High Schoolstudents.</p> Agi Ginanjar Reni Anggraeni Copyright (c) 2024 Agi Ginanjar, Reni Anggraeni https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-04-19 2024-04-19 3 1 1 9 10.56003/pessr.v3i1.315 Association between External Load and Injury Incidence in Professional and Elite-Youth Football Players https://jse.rezkimedia.org/index.php/pes/article/view/316 <p><strong>Background</strong>: Elite football players are monitored daily to minimize injury risks and maximize performance.</p> <p><strong>Objectives:</strong> The aim of the study was to investigate injury incidence differences between competition and training and differences in key external load indicators during 1-, 2-, 3- or 4-weeks prior to the injury (WPI) with respect to the season average week (SAW).</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> Data of 224 unique players of five teams (1st, under-23, under-18, under-17, and under-16) were collected during 3.5 seasons of competition and training resulting in 467 player records in total. Collected data included kinematics from Global Positioning System tracking units (Viper Units, STATSports) and 528 injury incident records. External load was expressed in terms of acceleration counts (ACC), deceleration counts (DEC), total training time (TT), total distance (TD), and distance covered in high-speed zones: 14.4-19.7 km/h (Z4), 19.7-25.1 km/h (Z5), and &gt;25.1 km/h (Z6). Injury incidence was derived as number of injuries per 1000 hours of exposure.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> Incidence rate was on average 4-11 times higher during competition than training for all teams except under-16 (incidence rate: 2.5, p=.153). In the 1st Team, external load (i.e. ACC, TT, and TD) were significantly different between 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-WPI and SAW (p=.041, p=.037, and p=.049 respectively). For ACC and TT, the 3-WPI loads, were significantly higher than during SAW (p=.044 and p=.038, respectively).</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> These findings can assist professionals and scientists to improve their understanding of the relationship between external load indicators and injury incidence and consequently improve player health and performance.</p> Georgios Georgiadis Rainer van Gaal Appelhof Rick Stoop Jeroen Peters Johannes Essers Copyright (c) 2024 Georgios Georgiadis, Rainer van Gaal Appelhof, Rick Stoop, Jeroen Peters, Johannes Essers https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-04-19 2024-04-19 3 1 10 25 10.56003/pessr.v3i1.316
