Effects of Training Methods and Power on Shooting Accuracy in Football

摘要

This research compared the effect of fixed target training and change target training on shooting accuracy in football. 24 school athletes aged 13-15 years old participated in this study and they were grouped into 4 groups through the use of ordinal pairing technique. Each group was trained using fixed target training (n=12) and change target training (n=12). Training was conducted 3 times a week for 90 minutes at each meeting. The vertical jump test was applied to measure the power while Widiastuti test was adopted to examine football shooting accuracy. For data analysis purpose, this study applied a two-way ANOVA. Results of this study indicate that fixed target training has greater influence on shooting accuracy football than change target training with 0.004 < 0.05 significance level. Furthermore, athletes with high power level has better shooting accuracy football than those with low power level with a significance level of 0.003 < 0.05. The results also indicate significant influence of training method and power on football skills with 0.032 < 0.05 significance level.
