PENGARUH LATIHAN PLIOMETRIK TERHADAP HASIL LAY UP SHOOT OLAHRAGA BOLA BASKET DI SMK NEGERI 1 BANDA ACEH

Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the significant impact of plyometric training on lay-up shoot skills among basketball players at SMK Negeri 1 Banda Aceh. The study involved 27 participants and was conducted from January 13 to January 20, 2024. A four-session plyometric training program was implemented over two weeks on Saturdays, Sundays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. The pretest and posttest data for lay-up shoot abilities were collected and analyzed. The descriptive statistical analysis of the pretest revealed a minimum score of 14, a maximum of 25, a mean of 19.89, and a standard deviation of 2.991. In contrast, the posttest analysis showed a minimum score of 23, a maximum of 30, a mean of 26.70, and a standard deviation of 1.938. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in lay-up shoot skills after plyometric training. The hypothesis testing using t-test indicated a significant influence of plyometric training on the enhancement of lay-up shoot skills, with a calculated t-value of 12.765, exceeding the critical t-value (2.056) at a significance level of 0.05. The 19% increase in skills further supported this finding. The study's conclusion affirmed that the applied plyometric training significantly improved lay-up shoot abilities among basketball players at SMK Negeri 1 Banda Aceh. Recommendations include structuring a comprehensive and continuous plyometric training program, regular monitoring and evaluation, integration with other training approaches, and collaboration between coaches and sports teachers. Implementing these suggestions is expected to optimize the benefits of plyometric training in basketball skill development.
