Development of led-based coordination tools: Validity

Abstract

Table tennis games require a fast rhythm to greet and return the ball, so players must have a good level of coordination and speed. Eye and hand coordination is one of the components of physical condition that is needed in table tennis. The purpose of this research is to develop a tool design model that provides convenience and efficiency for athletes and coaches. This tool is expected to make it easier for athletes to improve strokes in the direction that has been determined by tools made using LEDs. Based on the evaluation results the table tennis expert is “Very Good” with a score of 100. Construction Expert Evaluation is “Very Good” with a score of 100. The Motor Expert Evaluation is “Very Good” with a score of 85. Conclusion: (1) the model product (Coordination Stroke) can be used as a drill training aid, (2) effective as a drill training aid for drive and spin stroke techniques. It is recommended that this coordination training aid can be used for all athletes/players easy to use and efficient in training.
