THE CORRELATION OF ENDURANCE, LEG MUSCLE AND ELASTICITY WITH PLAYER SHOOTING ABILITY 14-15 AGES IN MUSPAN SOCCER SCHOOL PADANG

Abstrak

The problem in this research is lack of shooting done by players Muspan Soccer School, in other words the shooting is not in the target. Accordingly, this research aims to reveal the correlation of endurance, leg muscle and elasticity with player shooting ability in Muspan Soccer School.

The population of this research was 14-15 years old soccer players. The instrument used to get data was squath jump test, flexiometer test, and shooting test. The hypothesis that is proposed were (1) There was endurance of leg muscle strength with shooting ability) (2) There was correlation between elasticity with shooting ability, (3) There was correlation between leg muscle strength and elasticity with shooting ability. Data was analyzed using parametric statistic at significance 0.05 Α with correlation test formula.

The results of the analysis can be presented as follows: (1) There was a significant correlation between endurance of leg muscle strength with shooting ability (2) There was significant correlation between elasticity with shooting ability (3) There was significant relation of endurance of leg muscle strength and elasticity with shooting ability. In conclusion, that both variables (endurance leg muscle strength and elasticity) had significant correlation with shooting ability.
