Abstract

Objective. This study aims to determine the relationship between height, arm muscle strength, balance, and hand-eye coordination on the accuracy of shooting results in petanque athletes at Club ROP SOROP Are, Sumenep Regency.

Materials and Methods. The research method used is quantitative with a descriptive correlational analysis approach. The research population consisted of 15 athletes of Club ROP SOROP Are Petanque, Sumenep Regency, all of whom were sampled using total sampling techniques. Data analysis was carried out using correlation tests and coefficients of determination to see the relationship between independent variables and dependent variables.

Results. The results of the study showed a significant relationship between height and shooting accuracy (p = 0.047 < 0.05) with a coefficient of determination of 2.71%. No significant relationship was found between arm muscle strength and shooting accuracy (p = 0.112 > 0.05; R² = 1.83%) or between balance and shooting accuracy (p = 0.131 > 0.05; R² = 1.66%). Meanwhile, hand-eye coordination had a very significant relationship with shooting accuracy (p = 0.000 < 0.05) with a coefficient of determination of 8.51%. Simultaneously, the variables of height, arm muscle strength, balance, and hand-eye coordination had a significant effect on shooting accuracy (p = 0.000 < 0.05).

Conclusion. The conclusion of this study is that height and hand-eye coordination have a significant influence on the accuracy of shooting results in petanque athletes. In addition, the combination of the four physical variables together contributes significantly to the shooting performance of Club ROP SOROP Are athletes, Sumenep Regency.
