The Relationship between Leg Muscle Strength and Eye-Foot Coordination with Sepak Takraw Ability at the West Koya Sepak Takraw Club, Jayapura City in 2025

Abstract

The Sepak Takraw West Koya Club's sepak sila ability is not yet optimal, this can be seen when playing on the field, they often fail to pass when the ball is played on the field, handling the ball with the inside of the foot is not right so that the ball played is not controlled and does not optimally channel the ball to the receiver and individual ball control or passing is still inconsistent. The objectives to be achieved in this study are to determine: The relationship between leg muscle strength and eye-foot coordination with sepak sila ability both partially and simultaneously. In this study, correlation research was used with a population of the Sepak Takraw West Koya Club totaling 21 people. The sampling technique used was the saturated sampling technique, where the population is the same as the sample size, namely 21 people. By using tests and measurements, Discussion (1) There is a relationship between X₁ and Y obtained r = 0.728 with sig (P) = 0.000 < 0.05 with a contribution of 52.9%, (2) There is a relationship between X₂ and Y obtained r = 0.702 with sig P = 0.000 < 0.05 with a contribution of 49.2%. (3) There is a relationship between X₁ and X₂ with Y which is 0.728, the correlation is significant and X₁ and X₂ together have a very large contribution to Y which is 66.2%, so it can be concluded that the stronger the leg muscle strength and ankle coordination, the better the ability to swing oneself.
