Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris

Adolescence is a crucial age at which juvenile delinquents commonly appear. Therefore, analyzing the juvenile delinquency prevention strategy at this age is crucial. One known preventive strategy for juvenile delinquents is sports activity. Therefore, this study aims to obtain in-depth information about the role and use of football as an effort to form a positive adolescent personality as well as a way to overcome the problem of juvenile delinquency. This study uses qualitative methods with a grounded theory approach. A total of 10 youth coaches licensed with a minimum of 5 years of experience in football coaching and five parents of children athletes participated in this research. This research uses data triangulation, namely open-ended semi-structured interviews, observation, and document analysis, as data collection procedures. The collected information is then analyzed using themes. The results of the study revealed that football is a medium that is able to shape teenagers’ character, which leads to juvenile delinquency prevention by intensifying independence, responsibility, emotional management, a good attitude, respect for others, courage, alertness, and increased decision-making. Based on the results of the current research, researchers advise families and the government to provide for and involve more children in physical activities such as football. It is because football could shape the children's character, minimizing the occurrence of delinquency in the future. © 2024 by authors. All rights reserved.
