Correlation Between Physical Endurance and Fundamental Badminton Skills

Abstract

Objective. This study aims to determine the accuracy of badminton games played by players or athletes with different levels of endurance. 

Materials and Methods. This study uses a quantitative descriptive method using photos/videos by manually analyzing accuracy with a sample of 20 students. 

Results. The results show that there is a percentage of endurance levels with 2 students 10% who have good endurance, 7 students with a percentage of 35% have moderate endurance levels, 10 students with a percentage of 50% have poor endurance levels and 1 student with a percentage of 5% has very poor endurance. Furthermore, based on the results of the basic badminton skill technique test, 17 students with a percentage (85%) have a good level of basic technique skills, 3 students with a percentage (15%) have moderate basic technique skills, 0 students with a percentage (0%) have low basic technique skills. After looking at the results of the basic badminton skills technique test of 20 students of UKM Badminton University of Garut, they obtained 675 points, so that the average result obtained in this Physical Endurance test was 34 points, thus the average result is included in the "Good" category. Conclusion. The level of endurance and basic badminton techniques is not related, where it can be seen from the results of the average data obtained does not have a very far distance, this is the basis for the discussion that the level of Endurance has no effect on the accuracy of the basic badminton technique skills strokes.
