Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of plyometric training on soccer shooting skills among extracurricular participants at SMP Negeri 7 Palembang. The research method used was an experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 20 students who participated in the soccer extracurricular activity. The instrument used in this study was a soccer shooting skill test. The data were analyzed using a paired sample t-test. The results showed that there was an improvement in shooting ability after the implementation of plyometric training. The average pretest score was 38.60, which increased to 61.15 in the posttest. The hypothesis testing results showed that the calculated t-value was -11.324, which was smaller than the t-table value of 1.729 at a significance level of 0.05. This indicates that plyometric training had a significant effect on improving soccer shooting skills. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that plyometric training is effective in improving the shooting skills of soccer extracurricular participants at SMP Negeri 7 Palembang.
