Shooting Techniques in Basketball Games (Correlation Study on Physical Condition Components)

Abstract

This research aims to determine the relationship between leg explosive power, wrist flexibility, and eye-hand coordination on shooting ability. This type of research is a type of descriptive research. The research variables consist of independent variables, namely leg explosive power, wrist flexibility, and eye-hand coordination, while the dependent variable is shooting ability. The population in this study were all BKMF Basketball FIKK UNM college students with a research sample of 30 people. The sampling technique is to use "total sampling" meaning the entire population is sampled. The data analysis technique used is correlation and regression analysis using the SPSS Version 22.00 system at a significance level of 95% or (α) = 0.05. Based on the results of data analysis, this study concluded that: (1) There is a relationship between leg explosive power and basketball shooting ability, as evidenced by the calculated r-value (ro) = 0.680 (P=0.000 < α: 0.05) with a coefficient of determination value of 0.462. This means that 46.2% of basketball shooting ability is explained by explosive leg power; (2) There is a relationship between wrist flexibility and basketball shooting ability, as evidenced by the calculated r-value (ro) = 0.734 (P=0.000 < α:0.05) with a coefficient of determination value of 0.539. This means that 53.9% of basketball shooting ability is explained by wrist flexibility; (3) There is a relationship between hand-eye coordination, wrist flexibility, and basketball shooting ability, as evidenced by the calculated r-value (ro) = 0.689 (P=0.000 < α:0.05) with a coefficient of determination value of 0.474. This means that 47.4% of basketball shooting ability is explained by eye-hand coordination; and (4) There is a relationship between leg explosive power, wrist flexibility, and hand-eye coordination on basketball shooting ability, as evidenced by the calculated r-value (ro) = 0.768 (P=0.000< α:0.05) for a coefficient of determination value of 0.590. This means that 59% of basketball shooting ability is explained by explosive leg power, wrist flexibility, and eye-hand coordination.
