Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of sepak sila trainingon improving ball control skills in male students at SMAN 1 Dampelas. Conceptually, sepak takraw is a fundamental basic technique that plays a role in maintaining stability, coordination, and accuracy of ball contact, thus serving as the main foundation for mastery of the game. The study used an experimental method with a pretest-posttest design in one treatment group. The sample consisted of 10 male students actively participating in sepak takraw extracurricular activities. The intervention, a sepak sila trainingprogram, was implemented in a structured and systematic manner throughout the study period. Data were collected through ball control ability tests before and after the treatment. Statistical analysis using a paired sample t-test showed a significant improvement, with a calculated t-value of 26.55, greater than the t-table of 2.262 at a significance level of α = 0.05 (df = 9). Descriptively, the average ball control ability score increased from 6.2 in the pretest to 13.9 in the posttest. These findings demonstrate that specific technique training designed based on the principles of specificity and progression can optimize students' neuromuscular coordination and postural control. Therefore, sepak sila traininghas been shown to be effective in improving ball control and is worthy of recommendation as a core component of sepak takraw development programs at the secondary school level.
