<![CDATA[ABSTRACT Volleyball requires good mastery of basic techniques, one of which is the open spike technique as a primary attacking strategy to gain points. This study aimed to determine the level of basic open spike skills among male volleyball extracurricular participants at SMAN 4 Praya in 2025. The study employed a quantitative descriptive approach using a survey method. The sample consisted of 18 participants selected through purposive sampling based on criteria including active participation in training, competition experience, and being free from injury. The research instrument used an open spike skill observation sheet consisting of 20 movement indicators covering the preparation, execution, and landing phases. Data collection was conducted through skill tests and direct observation of participants’ movements. The data were analyzed descriptively using frequency distribution and percentage techniques. The results showed that no participants were categorized as very poor, while the poor and very good categories each consisted of 1 participant (5.56%). A total of 8 participants (44.44%) were in the moderate category, and another 8 participants (44.44%) were in the good category. These findings indicate that the basic open spike skills of male volleyball extracurricular participants at SMAN 4 Praya were generally well developed, although improvements are still needed in movement consistency, jump timing, ball contact quality, and landing technique to optimize spike performance.
