  • Pendampingan Latihan Berbasis Online Pada Atlet Cricket Sumatera Barat Dalam Menghadapi Pandemi Covid-19
    Vol.4 No 1 Tahun 2021 ISSN Print/online: 2655-5069 2655-5077 PENDAMPINGAN LATIHAN BERBASIS ONLINE PADA ATLET CRICKET SUMATERA BARAT DALAM MENGHADAPI PANDEMI COVID-19 Romi Mardela1, Yendrizal2, Septri3, Jeki Haryanto4 Program Studi Pendidikan Kepelatihan Olahraga Universitas Negeri Padang [email protected] Abstrak Disaat wabah pandemi Covid-19 melanda dunia, seluruh kegiatan masyarakat terpaksa berhenti untuk menghindari meluasnya penyebaran virus tersebut. Begitu pula dengan kegiatan latihan atlet Kriket Sumatera Barat dalam rangka persiapan Pekan Olahraga Nasional tahun 2021 di Papua juga sempat terhenti dan mengalami kendala sehubung pandemi tersebut. Kriket merupakan olahraga tim, jadi ketika latihan harus bersama-sama (14-20 orang dalam satu tim) agar maksimal dalam mencapai tujuan latihan. Untuk mengumpulkan semua atlet dalam satu sesi latihan menjadi sulit dengan adanya protokol kesehatan untuk pembatasan jarak dan jumlah orang yang berkumpul dalam suatu kegiatan. Hal ini berimbas pada tujuan latihan yang menjadi sulit tercapai. Terhadap persoalan yang dialami mitra tersebut maka perlu untuk dicarikan solusi agar atlet dapat terus latihan tanpa harus berkumpul bersama (dengan menjaga jarak) dan tujuan latihan dapat terus tercapai. Salah satu solusi yang diberikan yaitu dengan melaksanakan distance training berbasis online (latihan secara terpisah) menggunakan aplikasi Cricket Conditioning Physical Workload Monitoring. Fasilitas ini dapat dimanfaatkan oleh para atlet dalam menjalankan program latihan mereka terutama bagi para pelatih dapat dijadikan rujukan dan pedoman dalam mengontrol latihan para atlet dengan menggunakan aplikasi tersebut. Melalui program Kemitraan Masyarakat dari Universitas Negeri Padang pada tahun 2020,beserta dengan kepakaran yang dimiliki oleh para dosen di Fakultas Ilmu Keolahragaan, persoalan yang dialami Tim PON Kriket Sumatera Barat tersebut dapat diatasi dengan menggunakan aplikasi tersebut.

  • Tourism and Cricket: Travels to the Boundary Edited by Tom Baum and Richard Butler Channel View Publications Bristol, UK 2014 £24.95
    Tourism and Cricket: Travels to the Boundary Edited by Tom Baum and Richard Butler Channel View Publications Bristol, UK 2014 £24.95 ISBN-13: 978-1-84541-452-8 (pbk) This book is one of a series of books that explores Tourism and Cultural Change, defined as the complex and ever-changing relationship between tourism and culture(s). The series focuses on the ways that places, peoples, pasts and ways of life are increasingly shaped, transformed, created and packaged for touristic purposes. The series examines the ways tourism utilises/makes and remakes cultural capital and the political, economic, social and ethical issues that are raised as a consequence. The Series Editors are Professor Mike Robinson (University of Birmingham) and Dr Alison Phipps (University of Glasgow). The book is structured around three sections – The Development of Patterns; The Homes of Cricket; The True Costs – and comprises eleven chapters covering cricket from a variety of scales from village to global. As someone with a very strong interest in cricket since school days and having been a very ‘coarse’ club cricketer, the scope of the publication was of interest immediately and proved to be an equally engaging read. Having played at many village grounds in the New Forest – where hitting the oak tree scores 5 – and working at a University which leased the former Hampshire CCC ground of Dean Park, Bournemouth where I managed to hit a six out of the ground I must contest Butler’s assertion in Chapter 11 that ‘cricket is ninety nine per cent boredom, one per cent terror’.

After the first fifty years, the then Secretary, Jack Hoelscher, wrote the Club history. In his speech at the nineteenth anniversary dinner, Bob Young enlarged on this history. This history has drawn upon parts of both efforts. Prior to this current publication there has not been a list of players. Information has been gathered from annual reports post 1924, and newspaper results from 1897 to 1924. My thanks to QCA historian Warwick Torrens who provided information from his vast knowledge of Queensland cricket, and Ian Sturgess also of the QCA who is collecting information on club cricket in Brisbane. The material contained in this book has been collected over a period of three years. I hope you enjoy reading the Club’s history in its hundredth year.
