Abstract

More than 300 ethnic groups were recorded in all regions of Indonesia. This diversity is certainly an advantage for Indonesia in terms of its cultural wealth. The culture in question is seen in various aspects, including linguistic wealth (language), music, dance, painting, to the wealth of traditional games and sports. One form of government support for traditional sports is by organizing the Indonesian Community Recreational Sports Festival 2023 West Java. Gasing is one type of traditional sport that is competed after years of not being included in the type of sport. Many obstacles are faced in its implementation so that this research is intended to be an academic study which will be used as a reference in improving future implementations. The method used is descriptive qualitative through survey. The results showed several points that must be improved. These points are Type of Gasing, Gasing size requirements, Game Field, Game rules, and Additional devices. After being analyzed based on previous literacy, there are several inputs for improvement, including confirmation of the size of the spinning top made in the standardization, determination of the base of the field and field boundaries, regulations that must involve all representatives in formulating them, and what additional tools can be used in the next national level event. The input given is very relevant to the problem so that this research is able to answer the problems that arise.
