Abstract

Background Problems: Receiving the first ball is a problem for national sepak takraw athletes at the 2023 Cambodia Sea Games, where the reception technique is in the bad category. Research Objectives: This study aims to determine the effect of using tennis racket media on SEA Games athletes in Cambodia on improving sepak takraw reception skills. Methods: This study used quantitative methods with a one-group pretest and posttest. Random sampling was used to select Cambodian SEA Games sepak takraw athletes as research subjects. The population in this study were men’s sepak takraw athletes from the 2023 Cambodia Sea Games national training, with the sample used totaling 12 athletes taken randomly. Findings and Results: The results showed that the use of tennis racket media had a significant effect on increasing acceptance of sepak takraw games. Athletes who follow the training programme with tennis racket media experience a consistent increase in their ability to receive the ball.  Conclusion: These results indicate that the use of this additional training tool can be an effective strategy for improving the performance of sepak takraw athletes. The study makes some significant contributions to understanding the use of racket media in the training of sepak takraw athletes. Further research and wider experimentation can help deepen the understanding of the potential use of tennis racket media in sports training.

Abstract

Optimizing performance and devising efficient training regimens requires understanding elite athletes' physical profiles. In Indonesian Pencak Silat, BMI and body fat percentage reveal athletes' physical readiness and competitive advantages. Therefore, this study aims to examine the physical condition of Indonesian elite Pencak Silat athletes by assessing their BMI and body fat percentage. This research employed a quantitative descriptive design. A total of 20 elite athletes (12 males and 8 females) were selected through purposive sampling based on their achievements at national and international championships. Data collected included gender, weight class, BMI, and body fat percentage, measured using standardized anthropometric procedures. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, partial correlation analysis, and one-way ANOVA to explore relationships and differences based on gender and weight categories. The study found that athletes had a normal BMI of 22.8 kg/m² (SD = 1.9) and a body fat percentage of 16.5% (SD = 4.2%). On average, male athletes had a lower body fat percentage (14.2%) than female athletes (19.8%), a significant difference (p < 0.05). BMI was not significantly different among weight classes. However, partial correlation analysis showed a slight positive association (r = 0.45) between BMI and body fat percentage. In conclusion, Indonesian elite Pencak Silat athletes had ideal body compositions, with gender variances in body fat. These findings underline the need for gender and weight-specific training and dietary programs. This study contributes evidence-based recommendations to support more effective athlete development frameworks for advancing Indonesian Pencak Silat globally.
