This study aims to analyze the basic skills of lower passing and upper passing in volleyball extracurricular students at SMP Negeri 2 Sanga Desa. The study used a quantitative descriptive method with total sampling, involving 30 students (17 boys and 13 girls). The research instrument was in the form of a test of lower passing and upper passing skills for 60 seconds, assessed based on the number of correct passes according to the assessment norms that have been set. The results showed that most students were in the good category for both types of passing, with 33.3% on the bottom passing and 40% on the top passing. The upper passing skill is slightly higher than the lower passing, which is likely due to the frequency of practice and the use of the technique in the game. Overall, the basic volleyball skills of extracurricular students of SMP Negeri 2 Sanga Desa were in the good category, showing the effectiveness of the training program implemented, although advanced exercises were still needed to improve accuracy, ball control, and movement coordination.
