Focus and Scope

SM Research: Sports Mobility Research Journal aims to serve as the primary platform for researchers and practitioners to share innovations, research, and best practice applications in the field of sports.

SM Research: Sports Mobility Research Journal specifically targets key issues in the development of scientific disciplines within the field of sports, which encompass:

  1. Physical Education: Research in the field of Physical Education investigates every component of physical education, including policy and environment, curriculum, effective teaching strategies, and student assessment.
  2. Traditional Sport: Research on traditional sports involves exploring various aspects of games and sports that have been inherited from generation to generation within a specific culture or community. Traditional sports possess rich historical, social, and cultural values, and research in this field aims to understand, preserve, and promote these sports.
  3. Sport Coaching: Research on sport coaching encompasses various aspects related to the processes, techniques, and effectiveness of athlete coaching across different sports disciplines.
  4. Sport Tourism represents a dynamic segment of tourism that directly connects sports activities with travel experiences, encompassing both general and Sharia-compliant perspectives. In the general context, Sport Tourism research explores tourist motivations for sports-related destinations, economic and social impacts of international sporting events, destination development strategies, and tourist consumption patterns. From a Sharia perspective, Sport Tourism emphasizes adherence to Islamic principles, ensuring activities align with religious guidelines by maintaining ethical standards, modest dress codes, and avoiding prohibited elements like gambling or alcohol. Research in this field focuses on developing Muslim-friendly sports tourism destinations, creating Sharia-compliant event management models, analyzing Muslim traveler preferences, and developing marketing strategies tailored to Muslim markets.

Sport Medicine also encompasses enhancing athlete performance and overall health through medical interventions, nutritional strategies, and rehabilitation programs.
  6. Sport Biomechanics: Research in sports biomechanics studies human body movements during sports activities, focusing on how body structure and function influence athletic performance and injury risk. Sports biomechanics integrates principles from physics, mechanics, anatomy, and physiology to analyze movements and develop methods for enhancing athlete performance and preventing injuries.
  7. Sports Management: Research in sports management encompasses various aspects related to administration, organization, and operations of sports activities and organizations. This field explores methods for managing resources, enhancing sports organizational performance, and promoting participation and engagement in sports activities.
