Metode yang dipergunaka adalah peyuluhan proses pertolongan pada korban kecelakaan air melalui proses penyampaian materi, diskusi, dan peraktik lapangan. Hasil pengabdian diketahui terdapat peningkatan pegetahuan kelompok sadar wisata untuk melakukan pertolongan pada korban kecelakaan air di kawasan wisata.
Background: The ability of motor skills becomes the basis for children to master movement skills. There are still many students whose motor skills are below average. Objective: The aim is to compare the fundamental motor skills (FMS) regular program with the intervention FMS program conducted in 12 meetings within 6 weeks in schools. Methods: 80 kindergarten students were sampled and split into two equal groups where 40 students were placed in the control group to receive regular training and the rest 40 students in the intervention group. The test of gross motor development-2 (TGMD-2) was employed while measuring the motor skills through pre-test and post-test approach. Results: There was an increase in motor skills in both learning groups. After testing with the Mann-Whitney test, obtained with the mean range of 21.44 in the regular FMS program which was found lower comparing to the other one of the FMS in the intervention program of 59.56, Sig. equal to 0.000 <0.05, meaning that this discrepancy was statistically significant at p-value = 0.05. These latter findings imply that motor skills were highly increased in the intervention group rather than in those who followed the regular FMS program. Conclusion: The FMS learning through intervention programs is better at improving students' motor skills. Schools can use FMS interventions to improve motor skills, provided that the teacher understands the implementation of the program, implements the program according to the guidelines, students follow the entire learning process.
Football is one of the sports with the highest risk of injury, with injuries to children around 3% per year with serious injuries occurring at only 0.69% per year. The objective of the study is to investigate the application of FIFA 11+ Kids in minimizing sports injuries in youth football through enhancement components of physical condition, namely, leg muscle power and muscle flexibility. This study is an quasi-experimental research by using a pre-test - post-test control group design. The sample in this study are 20 people, divided into control and treatment groups. In this study, the sample is determined using a purposive sampling technique, with the following inclusion criteria: 1) male, 2) 11-12 years old, 3) practicing football regularly, 3) willing to be a research sample. In contrast, the criteria exclusion is experienced injured and unwilling to be a research sample. The distribution of control and treatment groups using matching subject ABBA technique. Instruments used in this research are the standing broad jump test to measure leg muscle power and sit and reach test to measure muscle flexibility. The data analysis is a t-test regression analysis with a level of 5% significance. This study found that the application of FIFA 11+ Kids can be used as a method to minimize sports injuries in youth football. The limitation of this study is that the sample is limited to only 20 children. This research is important because it contributes to the science of football coaching in terms of preventing injuries to children. Future research is expected to thoroughly examine the components of other physical conditions related to injury prevention, and use a larger sample from various age groups of soccer school students.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
