The Development of the tourism sector is crucial in stimulating the local economy, considering that Papua is a region blessed with natural beauty scattered all over the area. Sport tourism is well-established to enhance tourist attraction and encourage them to visit the tourist destinations. This research utilizes a mixed-method approach with a combination of concurrent embedded methods. Data collection involves surveys and Focus Group Discussions (FGD). The FGD will include 13 participants, comprising the head of DISORDA of Papua Province, head of DISPORA of Jayapura City, Head of Tourism Office of Jayapura City, Head of Transportation Office of Jayapura City and staff, 2 experts in sports event organizing, 1 expert in traditional sports, 1 academic anthropologist, 2 academic sports experts, and 2 indigenous figures from Port Numbay. The instruments used for qualitative research are researchers themselves, while for quantitative research, questionnaires are employed.
