Abstract

The management of internet use has become a great social problem among children or adolescents worldwide. The aim of this study is to show the contribution of internet on the sport participation events. This is a descriptive research with qualitative and quantitative approach. The samples of the study were 59 students; 20 boys and 39 girls with ages between 12-16 years. The data were collected using two techniques; literature review and Google form with closed questions. The instruments were from Young (1998) about Internet Addiction Test (IAT) and Cho’s research (2010) about participation of sports. The result showed that most of the students spent their time by not looking at sport events but for other else. This result showed the need for consistent education of using the internet for the students or adolescents to allow all the benefit from sports to them, like physical and mental benefit as wellbeing, and also to allow the discounted results of future athletes as a high performance. In conclusion, if internet is well used by junior high school students, it will provide them with the knowledge of physical sports and education. Moreover, the physical sports teachers and coaches will get the facility to train athletes so quickly. In contrast, it will negatively affect students if they don’t know how to manage the time allocated to use the internet.
