Student and regional sports activities have expanded across East Java. In early August, major competitions for youth were launched, including the Honda DBL 2026 East Java – North basketball tournament in Surabaya involving 139 teams, and the Okezone National Championship 2026 regional futsal tournament at Universitas Negeri Surabaya.

By late August, regional sports organizations shifted focus toward athlete selection for the 2027 East Java Provincial Sports Week (Porprov Jatim 2027). This includes talent scouting through the Gebu Minang Cup 4 domino tournament in Surabaya and a selection process by the Indonesian Drum Band Association in Probolinggo to identify athletes for intensive training.
