Abstract

The forehand drive technique is the most important in table tennis. To be able to do a forehand drive properly and correctly, you must understand and master the forehand drive technique. This study aims to determine the analysis of forehand drive strokes in South Bengkulu PTM club athletes. The type of research used is descriptive quantitative using a test survey method. The sample in this study were male table tennis athletes from the South Bengkulu PTM club who had been able to do a forehand drive, totaling 20 athletes. This study uses data analysis techniques using video recordings that are included in the Kinovea application. The results of data analysis in terms of biomechanics for each phase of the forehand drive stroke with a total of 20 athletes with an average value for each phase are 1) the prefix phase an average value of 3.8 criteria is appropriate, 2) the backswing phase an average value is 3.7 criteria is appropriate, 3) phase of the application of the average value of 4.0 criteria suitable, 4) the continuation phase of the average value of 4.5 criteria suitable. The overall average value of the 20 athletes is 4.1 which is included in the appropriate criteria.
