Quasi-experimental method is used with 40 children [Male (n = 20) and Female (n = 20)] who were randomly selected from Tambunan, Sabah. The Malaysian based traditional games with rules and regulations were played for a period of 8 weeks. Motor fitness tests were conducted 3 times (pre, mid and post) and the data collected were analyzed using MANOVA with repeated measurements. Results showed that there was a significant relationship between the application of the rules and regulations of the traditional games to the motor fitness performance [F(8,29) = 1704.16, p < 0.05]. The study also found that the traditional game played according to its rules and regulations are effective in improving the reaction time component performance standard [F(1,45) = 1775.75, p < 0.05], dexterity [F(1,38) = 2651.37, p > 0.05], balance [F(2,56) = 8578.98, p < 0.05] and speed [F(1,39) = 3255.90, p < 0.05]. In conclusion, children's participation in traditional games should be revived with standard rules and regulations due to its significance in improving their motor fitness abilities.

A sum of 711school children (286 girls and 425 boys) age range (10-12-year-old) was collected and the frequencies of children in each cutoff point were observed. The children underwent motor fitness assessments, and the cutoff point of Q1 (Jan-March), Q2 (Apr-June), Q3 (July-Sept) and Q4 (Oct-Dec) were assigned to represent their relative age. Data analysis was carried out for boys and girls separately. A Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to examine the significant motor fitness parameter between of cutoff point across all the age level and gender, while Tukey (HSD) follow-up test was used to examine the variance amongst the significant age quartile. Significant differences in the measured parameters between cutoff points in each age grouping were found p < 0.05. Pairwise comparison from theboy's category demonstrates that relative age effect (RAE) gradually set in as the age increases. Similarly, for girls, a minimum of one parameter significantly differedacross the cutoff points in each age grouping. The results revealed that children who are born at the early cutoff point have a higher advantage inmotor fitness performance. It is evident from the study that relative age cutoff point has an impact on children motor fitness in both boys and girls. Coaches should, therefore, consider the effect RAE in motor fitness associated with sports participation when identifying talent at a young age.

The advancements and use of technological strategies in performance analysis of soccer: An update. ABSTRACT Performance analysis in the game of soccer involves the collections of series of data based on relevant performance indicators on player's performance to aid accelerate his development. The development of technological devices in performance analysis of soccer began from manual notation system to different sort of devices which ranges from simple to complex each having its own advantages and shortcomings. The purpose of this paper is to review the technological advancement in the performance analysis of soccer. Three significant improvements were discussed highlighting the contribution as well as the limitation of each system in the performance analysis of the game. Hand notational systems, tablet application systems, as well as computerized video analysis systems, were deliberated. Although each of the system used has its own contribution in the provision of feedback to improve performance, computerized video analysis system is considered to be the best in providing information for assisting the coach to improve both individual and team performances.

Computer applications have been utilized to analyze player's performance long before the discovery of tablet applications. However, for the performance analysis to be more accurate and free from human error, the device used for the analysis need to be user-friendly. The aim of this study is to compare the user-friendliness between computer and tablet application in the performance analysis of soccer. Computer and tablet applications were provided to twenty-five performance analysts. They were asked to analyze the performance of players during a soccer match using the two applications differently. Their opinions were collected using a questionnaire for which application was more user–friendly. Chi-square test for goodness of fit was conducted based on the hypothesis that there was no significance difference in their opinion at a confidence level of p ≤ .05. The results shows the analyst differed in their views, (χ² = (1, N = 25) = 9.00, p < .05). The null hypothesis was therefore rejected, and tablet application was found to be user-friendly in the performance analysis of soccer. Tablet application should be more explored in performance analysis of soccer.

The participants were recruited from the interstate championship with various types of sports from Terengganu state in Malaysia. These athletes represented their corresponding divisions in the competition and were reflected the best at the state level for the under 21 year's age groups. These age groups were chosen because of research suggesting that participation motives and achievement behavior changes around this age. The measurements were carried out in the first three months of 2015. The coaches and the managers of the athletes were informed about the purpose of the research. Writing approval was obtained, and all the players signed consent forms. Procedure of Battery Tests: Anthropometric Test: Standard anthropometric testing was conducted which constitutes of height and weight with the subjects dressed in light clothing. Height was measured with a wallmounted wooden stadiometer to the nearest 0.5 cm. Body weight was evaluated with a standardized electronic digital scale to the nearest 0.1 kg. Body mass index (BMI) was measured as body mass in kilograms ABSTRACT Objective: This study investigates the relative performance quality pattern of athletes that trains under Terengganu sports development program based on physical fitness and psychological components. Methods: Relative performance data (223×7) were obtained from various types of sport, and its main tributaries were evaluated for physical fitness and TEOSQ instrument. Multivariate methods of hierarchical agglomerative cluster analysis (HACA), discriminant analysis (DA), principal component analysis (PCA), and principal factor analysis (PFA), were used to study the relative performance variations of the most significant performance quality variables and to determine the origin of relative performance components. Results: Three clusters of performance were shaped in view of HACA. Forward and backward stepwise DA discriminates six and five performance quality variables from the first seven variables. PCA and FA were used to identify the origin of each quality performance variables based on three clustered groups. Three PCs were obtained with 67% total variation for the highperformance group (HPG) region, three PCs with 72% and 64% total variances were obtained for the moderate-performance group (MPG) and low-performance group (LPG) regions, respectively. The general performance sources for the three groups are from cardiovascular and ego orien-tation sources. The differences between groups are from flexibility for LPG, task orientation, muscle strength and endurance for MPG and for HPG is flexibility, strength and task orientation. Conclusion: Multivariate methods reveal meaningful information on the relative performance variability of a large and complex athlete's performance quality data and can be used to determine the significant source and predict potential athletes.
