ABSTRACT

Every child's life is unique, as is their potential or talent. A coach must be fully aware of each child's uniqueness in developing children to become future athletes, as we know that every child has specific potential/talents in the sports field, including those with disabilities. This research aims to determine the influence of the DR-GOS model in helping children with disabilities assess their abilities and interests in sports. The researcher chose the experimental method as the approach used in the research with a one-group pre-test-post-test design. The sample consisted of 20 students representing three school areas for people with disabilities in West Java, Indonesia. The instrument used was the second series of gross motor development tests (TGMD-2). Based on the calculation of the average difference between pre-test and post-test TGMD-2 data, the average locomotor skill was 36.32; for ball control ability, the total average was 44.01; meanwhile, the TGMD-2 test results obtained an average of 80.35. To test data normality using Kolmogorov-Smirnov, the TGMD-2 test result was 0.146. Since the data is usually distributed and Asymp.Sig is significantly more than 0.05, hypothesis testing was carried out using one-way ANOVA analysis; the result obtained was a P value of 0.002 < 0.05. This condition means that H0 is rejected, thus proving that there is a difference between the average pre-test score and the post-test score. This research shows how the application of the DR-GOS model has succeeded in helping children with hearing impairments (PI) to determine their sports talents. It is hoped that this can help other people with disabilities decide on their sporting skills, of course, with several different special tools. This matter is necessary to support the existence of children with disabilities in the social life they deserve.
