Analisis Tingkat Kemampuan Pukulan Servis Tenis sebagai Dasar Pengembangan Pembelajaran Pendidikan Jasmani pada Klub Tenis Junior Manonjaya

Introduction

Analisis tingkat kemampuan pukulan servis tenis sebagai dasar pengembangan pembelajaran pendidikan jasmani pada klub tenis junior manonjaya. Analisis kemampuan pukulan servis tenis atlet junior Klub Manonjaya 2024. Studi ini menemukan tingkat kemampuan servis baik, namun perlu pengembangan pembelajaran jasmani lebih lanjut.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the level of tennis service skills among junior athletes at the Manonjaya Tennis Club in 2024. The background of this study is based on the importance of mastering service techniques as a basic skill in tennis that plays a major role in scoring points in a match. The research method used is quantitative descriptive with a survey technique. The research population consisted of 20 athletes, with a sample of 12 junior athletes (8 boys and 4 girls) aged 10–14 years selected using purposive sampling. The research instrument was the Hewitt tennis test, which consisted of 10 service skill trials assessed based on ball placement accuracy. Data analysis used descriptive percentage statistics. The results showed that the average service ability of the athletes was 40% with a median of 40.5, a mode of 41, a minimum value of 37, a maximum value of 43, and a standard deviation of 2.88. A total of 67% of athletes were in the high category (Grade B), while the other 33% were in the medium category (Grade C). The conclusion of this study is that the service ability of junior athletes at the Manonjaya Tennis Club is relatively good, although there are still athletes who need further training. This study recommends the need for more focused training in physical, technical, and mental aspects of competition so that the quality of athletes' serves can improve consistently.

Review

This study provides a quantitative descriptive analysis of junior tennis players' service abilities at the Manonjaya Tennis Club. Focusing on a sample of 12 athletes aged 10-14, the research employs the standardized Hewitt tennis test to assess service accuracy. The findings suggest that the majority of junior athletes exhibit a "relatively good" service ability, with 67% categorized as high and 33% as medium. This research offers valuable baseline data concerning a fundamental skill in tennis, emphasizing its importance for scoring and overall game performance, and contributes a specific assessment of the current skill level within this particular junior club. A significant strength of the study lies in its clear objective to quantify service skills using a well-established instrument, providing objective metrics for evaluation. The focused population of junior athletes in a specific club makes the findings directly applicable to local coaching and training programs. However, the abstract could more explicitly detail how the determination of service ability serves as a "basis for developing physical education learning," as stated in the title, beyond merely recommending further training. While the recommendation for focused training in physical, technical, and mental aspects is logical, the precise pedagogical link to "physical education learning development" could be elaborated for a broader impact. Additionally, providing the score ranges or thresholds for the "high" and "medium" categories from the Hewitt test would enhance the interpretability of the descriptive percentages. To further enrich its contribution, future research building on this foundation could explore longitudinal studies to track the effectiveness of implemented training programs over time. Comparative studies with other junior clubs or different age groups would provide broader benchmarks and context for the "relatively good" assessment. Moreover, delving into the specific factors that differentiate athletes in the high versus medium categories, such as coaching techniques, training volume, or physical attributes, could yield more targeted interventions. Finally, a dedicated section or discussion linking the service ability assessment directly to actionable strategies for "physical education learning development" would fully address the scope implied by the study's ambitious title.
