Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of ladder drill training on field tennis mobility in athletes aged 14-16 years in Bandar Lampung. The research method used in this study is an experiment with the aim of knowing whether there is an effect of the results of the study on the problem under study. The sample of this study was field tennis athletes aged 14-16 years in Bandar Lampung totaling 20 athletes. The sampling technique uses ordinal pairing with the division of 2 groups, namely the experimental group and the control group. The instrument used the field tennis mobility test from the International Tennis Federation Book. The results showed that there was a significant effect of ladder drill training on tennis mobility in athletes aged 14-16 years in Bandar Lampung with a value of tcount = 5.230> ttable = 2.262. This means that ladder drill is an effective method to train jumping skills, both with one foot and two feet, by jumping over a ladder-shaped rope placed on the floor or ground. The results of the comparison with the control group obtained a value of tcount = 3.866> ttable = 2.101, meaning that there is a significant comparison of tennis mobility between the experimental and control groups.
