Abstract

Although the coaching climate or leadership within the principal is very important, there is limited evidence in the junior high school context, especially in Indonesian studies, which examine the direct relationship between leadership support and training environment in extracurricular sports activities. This study aims to analyze the relationship between leadership support and training environment in extracurricular sports activities in junior high schools in Indonesia. This study used a descriptive quantitative design with a purposive sampling technique. The sample consisted of 133 students (aged 12–14 years) actively participating in extracurricular sports: 43 students from Brebes Regency, 47 students from Tasikmalaya City, and 43 students from Mataram City. The leadership support instrument was adapted from the Leadership for Sport Scale (LSS), while the training environment was adapted from the Student Athlete Training Environment Scale. Data analysis was performed using Spearman's rank correlation and Kruskal-Wallis test to compare scores across regions. The results showed a strong and significant positive relationship between leadership support and the training environment (ρ = 0.715; sig. = 0.009). The Kruskal-Wallis test showed no significant difference in leadership support scores (sig. = 0.460) and the training environment (sig. = 0.255) based on region. In conclusion, improving the quality of the extracurricular coaching environment in junior high schools can be prioritized by strengthening supportive leadership practices among coaches. Future research could increase the sample size, include more specific sports, include mediator variables, and expand the research model to include psychological factors, coach competence, organizational culture, or motivational climate.
