Abstract

This study will be conducted to test the effectiveness of cooperative learning methods in improving the basic basketball skills of fifth-grade preparatory students in a preparatory school in Maysan Governorate. The study design was an experimental one that used two-group design, experimental and control group, which contained pre-test and post-test results. A total of 40 students were used as the sample (evenly split between the two groups); the intervention of the experimental group was eight weeks, two sessions a week. Various tools were used such as a test of basic basketball skills such as passing, shooting, dribbling and ball handling and a performance observation form. The statistical analysis of the outcomes was performed with respect to the descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) and t -test of related and independent samples. The results showed that there were significant differences in favor of the experiment group in all the basic skills, which showed that cooperative learning methods had potent impacts in boosting the level of students motor performance. The discussion revealed that the method enhanced social interaction, self-confidence, intrinsic motivation, and cooperation, as per the current educational and psychological theories, such as the theory of Vygotsky (1978) and Johnson and Johnson (2019). The article suggests the implementation of the cooperative learning methods in the physical education classes, educating the teachers on how to apply them, and carrying out similar research to analyze their applicability in other team sports.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effect of target-gate-based training on improving the accuracy of Smash and drive strokes among badminton athletes of PB Surya Baja Surabaya. The study employed a quasi-experimental method using a one-group pretest–posttest design. The participants consisted of 20 badminton athletes, including 10 male and 10 female athletes, with a mean age of 17.00 ± 1.38 years. All participants completed a target-gate-based drill training program over 12 training sessions. The research instruments consisted of Smash and drive accuracy tests. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality testing, and a paired sample t-test. The results showed an increase in the mean scores across all variables after the intervention. The average accuracy scores for right and left Smashes improved from 17.95 and 17.20 to 28.20 and 27.75, respectively, while the average scores for right and left drives increased from 19.40 and 18.40 to 28.70 and 27.60. The paired sample t-test revealed significant differences between pretest and posttest scores across all variables (p < 0.05). Therefore, target-gate-based training was proven effective in improving the accuracy of Smash and drive strokes among PB Surya Baja Surabaya badminton athletes.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effect of paddle weight and size on stroke accuracy and stroke stability in table tennis. The research employed a quantitative approach using an experimental method involving 20 students from the Sports Science Study Program at Muhammadiyah University of Gorontalo. All participants were tested using two types of paddles with different characteristics: Paddle A weighing 150 grams and measuring 15 × 14 cm, and Paddle B weighing 175 grams and measuring 16 × 15 cm. The research instruments consisted of an accuracy test and a stroke stability test. Data were analyzed using a paired-sample t-test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the use of Paddle A produced an average stroke accuracy score of 74.14%, while Paddle B yielded an average score of 68.41%. Statistical analysis revealed a significance value of 0.005, indicating a significant effect of paddle weight and size on stroke accuracy. In addition, the stroke stability score achieved using Paddle A was 8.20, which was higher than the score obtained using Paddle B (6.45). Based on these findings, it can be concluded that paddle weight and size significantly influence stroke accuracy and stability in table tennis. Selecting appropriate paddle characteristics can help improve players’ technical performance, particularly among novice players.

Abstract

Swimming requires good physical condition because movements in the water require coordination between the arms and legs, breathing, and efficient technique. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of weight training in swimming based on previous research. The method used in this study was a Systematic Literature Review by examining journal articles published between 2021 and 2025. This literature review was used because this study requires data from various literature sources, particularly scientific articles discussing resistance training, strength training, and swimming performance. Based on the results of the review of several articles, weight training has a positive effect on improving swimming performance, especially in aspects of arm muscle strength, leg muscle strength, explosive power, muscular endurance, and swimming speed. Forms of exercise that can be used include push-ups, pull-ups, pull-downs, squats, alternate squats, resistance bands, jump ropes, hand paddles, swim tether belts, and water rubber around the waist. Resistance training must be structured, planned, and sustained to support the athlete's physical abilities and optimally improve swimming performance

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and compare the physical fitness levels between Sports Class (X-G) and Regular Class (X-K) students. This study employed a quantitative approach with a causal-comparative design, involving 71 tenth-grade students at SMAN 1 Pandaan selected through a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a modified Indonesian Physical Fitness Test (TKJI) consisting of five physical items (sit-ups, push-ups, back-ups, flexed-arm hang, and pure high jump) and analyzed using the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test. The findings indicate that the Sports Class group demonstrated a significantly superior physical fitness level (Mean Rank = 45.71 ± 0,66) compared to the Regular Class group (Mean Rank = 26.56 ± 1,42) with p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). The implications include theoretical contributions to fitness evaluation literature and practical implications for educational institutions in designing targeted exercise programs. This study also provides opportunities for further research on nutritional factors influencing fitness dynamics.

Abstract

The research method employed was Research and Development (R&D), fully adopting the ten stages of the Borg and Gall model. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and the administration of a five-point Likert scale closed-ended questionnaire to a team of expert validators and extracurricular student participants as direct users. The research results indicated that the product underwent three concrete revision phases, including reinforcing the stand base stability with carpet rubber, securing the rubber surface edges using black cloth tape, and modifying the corners into rounded shapes for safety. The cumulative empirical feasibility rate of the product in the final post-implementation evaluation successfully reached 91%, classifying it into the highly feasible category. In conclusion, the innovation of the full-scale portable reversible dual-surface rebound board proved to be effective, safe, and highly feasible for improving students' motor skill consistency in forehand and backhan drive attacks as well as short drop shot control without relying on complex digital components. This media serves as an economical and appropriate technological solution to address facility limitations and coach-to-student ratio gaps in the field.
