Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of "precision with tempo" exercises on the accuracy of groundstroke punch techniques in the Fields Tennis Students Activity Unit of Yogyakarta State University. This was a quasi-experimental research using the one group pretest posttest design method. The population in this study were players of Fields Tennis Students Activity Unit of Yogyakarta State University with sample of 12 players whose accuracy of groundstroke punch technique was still low, not the core players and mid-level players. The instrument for the test used is the Hewitt Tennis Test to assess the level of accuracy by forehand and backhand groundstroke by using a predetermined target. The data analysis technique uses paired-t test, which is intended to compare the mean values of the pre-test and post-test results before and after treatment with the same sample. Before the paired-t test, performed the normality test and homogeneity test. The results showed that after practicing precision with tempo methods, the average forehand groundstroke and backhand groundstroke scores increased, namely the forehand groundstroke of 2.77 and the backhand groundstroke of 3.87. Thus, it can be concluded that there is an influence of the "precision with tempo" training model on the accuracy of groundstroke at the players of Fields Tennis Students Activity Unit of Yogyakarta State University.
