ABSTRACT

The athlete believes that sport is essential for children's growth and maintaining a healthy lifestyle throughout life. To achieve top performance, there needs to be more training and competitions focused on children, but high levels of training and early specialization can conflict with the academic performance of young athletes. This research was conducted to describe the self-discipline of dual-career athletes in the academic environment of students in the university environment, based on individual sports and team sports categories. As many as 96 student athlete respondents in the university environment, consisting of individual and team sports athlete categories, were the respondents in this study. The results of the study show that participation in sports activities has a positive impact on athletes' discipline and their academic atmosphere. The dimension of time management has the highest value, which indicates that sports activities have a very good impact on time management for student athletes. They strongly agree that participating in sports activities helps them develop better time management skills, show discipline, and focus more on set goals. The results of the analysis show that there is no significant difference in discipline between team and individual athletes in the university academic environment. The average discipline value for team athletes is 4.31, while the one-tailed t test value is 0.401, greater than 0.05. However, to make this happen, support from the university is needed to be enable them to carry out their dual career as an athlete and as an academic so that continuity between the academic field and achievement can go hand in hand.
