Analysis Of Attack Velocity and Accuracy in Banjarbaru City Fencing Athletes

Abstract

Studi purpose. The purpose of this study is to determine the Speed and Accuracy of Attacks on Fencing Athletes when making attacks lacking speed and accuracy so as to make attack techniques not optimal and effective which have an impact on points and endurance.

Materials and methods. This research method uses descriptive-quantitative method. The population in this study were 19 Banjarbaru City fencing athletes, and a sample of 6 fencing athletes using purposive sampling technique (athletes who are still active).

Results. The results showed that male fencing athletes in Banjarbaru City had the highest Velocity of 3.83 m/s, the lowest Velocity of 2.94 m/s, and the average velocity of 3.39 m/s. while the highest velocity by female fencing athletes was 4.59 m/s, the lowest velocity was 2.99 m/s, and the average velocity was 3.79 m/s. In terms of accuracy, the highest score recorded among male and female fencing players is 9.
