Abstract

Dragon Boat rowing demands a high level of strength, endurance, technique, and team cohesion. Problems encountered among female rowers in West Tanjung Jabung include mid-race fatigue, slowing of their paddling technique, and the lack of regular and systematic training evaluations. This study aims to analyze training evaluations to improve the performance of female rowers using the CIRO (Context, Input, Reaction, Outcome) evaluation model. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach, with the participants being the head of the board, coaches, assistant coaches, and athletes. Data were collected through field observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation of training programs and performance data. Data analysis was conducted using NVivo 12 Pro through thematic coding. The results show: (1) Context: coaches design periodization based on four pillars (physical, technical, mental, and competition simulation) with the vision of making West Tanjung Jabung a regional barometer; (2) Input: infrastructure is adequate but requires equipment upgrades, with funding support from KONI and private sponsors; (3) Reaction: all stakeholders demonstrated a positive and supportive response; (4) Outcome: The women's team won second place at the 2025 Jambi Provincial Championship and is targeting advancement towards PORPROV and PON. It was concluded that the CIRO-based evaluation effectively identified strengths and areas for improvement in the training program and supported sustainable performance improvement.
