Abstract

Basketball training for most coaches in West Java – Indonesia in particular still focuses on physical appearance only. Focusing on in-depth engineering aspects is still felt to be lacking. Training with the BEEF method may or even rarely be done by most trainers, especially in doing free throws. This study aims to determine the effect of the BEEF training method on basketball extracurricular free throw shooting skills in high school students. This study is a quantitative experimental research that uses the one group pretest–posttest design method. The sample in this study included basketball extracurricular members; there were 22 students with an average age of 16.18 years and a standard deviation of 0.50 years, an average height of 168.05 cm and a standard deviation of 3.50 cm, and an average weight of 56.55 kg and a standard deviation of 2.30 m. The instruments used in this study were the basketball mastery assessment instrument and the free throw shooting within one minute instrument. In this study, data analysis was performed using the t-test by comparing the results of the pretest and posttest. The research analysis results show that the free throw shooting in one minute test count is 7,931 which is greater than the table value of 2.080, which means that there is a significant effect on the results of the extracurricular freeshooting basketball test at Pasundan 2 Cimahi high school. Thus it is concluded that there is an effect of the BEEF training method on free throw shooting skills in basketball. It is recommended that coaches not only focus on physical aspects, technical refinements also need to be considered, especially for those who are new to or even learning basketball. © 2022, Editura Universitatii din Pitesti.
