Jurnal sport-mu is published biannually, specifically releasing its issues twice a year in June and December. In accordance with the guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), we ensure that our operational procedures follow core transparency rules. As outlined in the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing, a journal's publishing frequency must be clearly described, and the journal must keep to its publishing schedule. By strictly adhering to this biannual schedule of June and December, Jurnal sport-mu ensures that all accepted manuscripts are released on time and according to our publicly declared timeline.

To maintain a professional, transparent, and trustworthy editorial office, all critical journal information must be easily accessible to authors, reviewers, and readers without ambiguity. According to COPE's Core Practices regarding journal management, publishers and editors must transparently display their publishing schedule and frequency alongside other vital information such as the aims and scope, peer review model, and author guidelines on the journal website. By adhering to this guideline, Jurnal sport-mu explicitly states its June and December publication schedule on its platform, preventing any misleading expectations and fostering trust within the academic community.

Furthermore, consistent adherence to a publishing timeline is a key measure of a journal's stability and its dedication to maintaining the scientific record. COPE emphasizes that robust scholarly journals must demonstrate a track record of timely publication, consistently releasing original research or scholarly articles in strict accordance with their declared schedule. Jurnal sport-mu meets this rigorous ethical standard by ensuring a reliable flow of high-quality research every June and December, thereby avoiding arbitrary publication delays and supporting the timely advancement of sports science and physical education.
