Abstract

In the current era, team sports are very popular and become the centre of attention. One of the most popular sports, both internationally and domestically, is basketball. Basketball not only supports physical training, but also must support tactical training. In general, mental toughness is a general term used by most athletes, coaches, and the media to understand mental characteristics that excel in training and competition. One method to improve mental toughness in basketball athletes is match simulation. Coaches and athletes deliberately carry out simulations in different forms of challenges according to the shape, content, time, place of origin, and difficulty level in basketball practice. In this regard, what happens in Indonesia is that every athlete has a different mental toughness in the match, both the winning compilation team and the losing compilation team. Here, the match simulation becomes one of the methods that can improve the mental toughness of an athlete.
