Abstract

Background Speed is one of the most important physical components in badminton as it determines an athlete’s ability to respond to attacks and return the shuttlecock to areas that are difficult for opponents to reach. Athletes with optimal speed can control the game’s tempo and increase their chances of winning. One effective method to improve speed is plyometric training, which utilizes explosive muscle contractions to optimize strength and power. Objectives This study aimed to examine the effect of plyometric training on improving the speed of non-professional badminton athletes. Methods A pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach was employed. The participants were 15 non-professional female athletes aged 20–25 years, all with normal blood pressure and resting heart rates. The training program consisted of box jump, box shuffle, and squat jump, conducted three times per week for six weeks (a total of 18 sessions). Speed was measured before and after the intervention using the 30-meter running test. Data were analyzed using a paired-sample t-test with a 5% significance level. Results The results showed a significant improvement in mean speed from 4.49 ± 0.17 seconds to 4.14 ± 0.21 seconds (p ≤ 0.001). It is concluded that a structured plyometric training program effectively increases the speed of non-professional badminton athletes. Conclusion The contribution of this study is to provide empirical evidence for coaches and athletes that plyometric training can be integrated into physical conditioning programs as a strategy to optimize on-court performance.

Abstract

Background Shooting accuracy is a fundamental skill in futsal, yet preliminary observations at State Junior High School 35 Pekanbaru showed that students still demonstrate low shooting performance, indicated by weak ball power, inaccurate ball direction, and poor foot–ball contact. These symptoms suggest inadequate leg muscle power and insufficient eye–foot coordination, which may inhibit students’ ability to perform accurate shots. Objectives This study aims to analyze the contribution of leg muscle power and eye–foot coordination to futsal shooting accuracy among students at State Junior High School 35 Pekanbaru. Methods This research employed a multiple-correlation design involving 15 students selected through total sampling. Leg muscle power was measured using the standing broad jump test, eye–foot coordination was assessed with a coordination test, and shooting accuracy was evaluated through a futsal shooting test. Data were analyzed using simple and multiple correlation techniques. Results The findings show that leg muscle power significantly contributes to shooting accuracy (r = 0.799; contribution = 63.84%). Eye–foot coordination also shows a significant contribution (r = 0.615; contribution = 37.82%). Simultaneously, both variables provide a substantial combined contribution to shooting accuracy (r = 0.800; contribution = 64%). Conclusion In conclusion, leg muscle power and eye–foot coordination are decisive determinants of students’ futsal shooting accuracy. The study contributes to educational practice by emphasizing the need for targeted physical and coordination training to support students’ motor skills development, thereby enhancing their confidence, engagement, and overall well-being through sports participation.

Abstract

Background The background of this research lies in the need to understand the physical condition of students participating in futsal extracurricular activities, as optimal physical fitness is essential for supporting performance in a fast-paced sport such as futsal. Evaluating students’ physical condition is necessary to identify their strengths and weaknesses across several fitness components relevant to gameplay. Objectives The objective of this study was to determine the overall level of physical condition among futsal extracurricular students at YLPI Perhentian Marpoyan Junior High School. Methods This research employed a descriptive quantitative design. The participants consisted of 15 futsal extracurricular students selected through a total sampling technique. Data were collected through a series of physical fitness tests, including a 30-meter sprint test to measure speed, a shuttle run test to assess agility, a standing long jump test to measure leg explosive power, a wall squat test to measure muscular endurance, and a 15-minute run test to evaluate cardiorespiratory endurance. To get an overall classification, the test results were put into standardized scoring categories and then analyzed. Results The results indicated that the students achieved an average final physical condition score of 2.5, rounded to 3, which is categorized as Fair. These findings indicate that although students possess basic physical abilities, their overall physical condition remains insufficient to meet the demands of futsal performance. Conclusion The study concludes that students require improvement through structured and consistent training, which points to the importance of enhanced fitness development programs within the extracurricular futsal setting.

Abstract

Background Physical fitness plays a crucial role in supporting elementary school students’ ability to engage in learning activities without experiencing excessive fatigue. Adequate fitness levels enable students to maintain concentration and participate actively in school tasks. In Indonesia, information regarding the physical fitness of elementary school children remains limited, despite its importance for promoting overall health and learning readiness. Objectives This systematic review aims to examine the existing scientific literature on the role of traditional games as a learning strategy to improve physical fitness among elementary school students in Indonesia. Methods A systematic search was conducted across four major databases—ScienceDirect, Scopus, Google Scholar, and PubMed. The search strategy employed a combination of keywords, including (“traditional games” OR “play model”) AND “physical fitness” AND “students” AND “elementary school.” The review process followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, including screening, eligibility assessment, and data extraction from relevant studies. Results The findings indicate that traditional games positively contribute to improving students’ physical fitness. These games are typically designed using a play-based approach and incorporate activities aligned with children’s fundamental motor skills and developmental stages. Improvements occur because traditional games encourage active participation, increase movement engagement, and support effective fitness development within physical education settings. Conclusion Traditional games represent an effective and culturally relevant strategy for enhancing physical fitness among elementary school students in Indonesia. Their integration into physical education classes can promote active learning and contribute to better health outcomes. This review provides comprehensive evidence on the pedagogical value of traditional games in improving children’s physical fitness, highlights their relevance for culturally grounded physical education practices, and offers insights for researchers, educators, and policymakers seeking to optimize school-based fitness interventions.
