Abstract

Indonesia has a badminton boarding school where teenaged badminton athletes can be trained and schooled in the game of badminton in order to obtain optimum result and high performance both in national and international competitions. It became imperative for some adjustments to be made on the school to enable athletes manage the stress and tension arising from the game and to enable them give their best performance. This qualitative case study was used to describe the adjustment process in the athletes. Data was collected from twenty four athletes and four teachers using the semi-structured interview technique . The researchers also focused on the school’s principal, teachers and trainers. Results obtained showed that new athletes admitted into the school required one to three months to adjust to the whole boarding system. Furthermore, students are needed to adjust to new school rules and regulations once every six months which is in line with the school’s academic calendar and championship outcomes. Results also showed that most athletes managed to carry out unstructured adjustments in an effort to neutralize any negative emotion instead of addressing the core problem. Unsolved problems tend to reappear, thereby, making these students to undergo a slow adjustment process.
