Abstract: The study analyzed the relationship between goal setting and the motivation level of futsal extracurricular athletes at State Senior High School 1 Cirajang. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 35 active athletes who participated in futsal extracurricular activities, which were selected based on the criteria of activeness. The independent variable is goal setting, while the dependent variable is motivation, both of which are measured using a Likert scale-based questionnaire. With a correlation value of r = 0.579 (p = 0.001), the results of the analysis showed a significant positive relationship between goal setting and motivation. Goal setting contributed 33.6% to the increase in athlete motivation, which shows that targeted goal setting can significantly affect motivation levels. However, other factors also affect athletes motivation, so a more comprehensive approach is needed to optimize training outcomes. This finding emphasizes the importance of implementing goal setting in training programs to increase athletes' motivation in achieving optimal performance.
