Keywords:
anxiety, mental health, sports coaching studentsAbstract
This study aims to analyze the level of anxiety experienced by students of the Sports Coaching Education (Pendidikan Kepelatihan Olahraga/PKO) program who are actively involved in football, as well as the factors that influence it. Anxiety is one of the key aspects of mental health that can affect both academic and athletic performance. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with purposive sampling, involving 25 PKO students from Universitas Negeri Gorontalo who took the Mental Health course and actively played football. Data were collected through questionnaires and direct observations, focusing on three aspects of anxiety: cognitive, physiological, and behavioral. The findings revealed that the football players’ anxiety level was categorized as moderate, with an average score of 3.81 and a standard deviation of 0.51. The main factors contributing to anxiety included competition pressure, coach expectations, lack of match experience, and low self-confidence. However, moderate anxiety can have a positive effect if managed properly, as it can enhance focus and motivation. It is recommended that coaches pay greater attention to mental training programs such as relaxation, positive visualization, and stress management to help players control their emotions and improve on-field performance.
