Fencing is a sport that requires a maximum physical component so that in this study the aim was to test and find out the effect of variations in stair climbing exercises in improving floret/foil balestra fencing weapons. This study used a test-experiment with the research design "Single-Group Pretest-Posttest Design". The research sample consisted of 20 people, coming from students (elective course (MKP) Fencing) of a state university in eastern Indonesia (male and female) who were then divided into training groups through random sampling technique. The balestra fence measurement tool for floret/foil type weapons uses the Kuhadja fencing skills test. Pretest and posttest results were analyzed using the influence test (t-test). The research location is at the Football Stadium (a stadium grandstand with 25 steps). Results; 1) there was a significant difference between the pretest and posttest groups with the various stair climbing exercises towards increasing the ability to balestra floret fencing weapons. 2) There is a significant difference between the posttest (after treatment) of varied stair climbing training and the control group in increasing the ability to balestra floret fencing weapons. We estimate that this increase is the result of increased leg muscle strength, speed, and explosive power obtained through varied stair climbing exercises.

“…The results of the material expert test by soccer learning material experts show that this application obtains an average score of 3.83 so the total average validation score is 3.75, which is included in the "very valid" category. This means that this application can show the quality of the basic movements of playing football for students and football athletes to determine the number of quality and talented football players (McCalman et al, 2022).…”

The android-based performance assessment instrument in football learning is the result of the development of a football learning assessment instrument that adapts to the digital era. This study aims to test the validity and practicality of an android-based performance assessment instrument in football learning. The research method used was a validation test by media and soccer material experts and a practicality test by a football course lecturer. Application testing is carried out based on predetermined criteria. After being assessed by the validator and meeting the valid criteria, this application is then tested (implemented) by the subject or user. The data collection instruments used were field notes, expert validation sheets, and questionnaires. The media feasibility test of the assessment referred to the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ) standard. Data analysis was conducted to determine the applicant's eligibility and validity category based on the assessments of media experts and soccer learning evaluation experts. The results showed that the developed application was acceptable, with an average score of 3.67 from media experts and 3.83 from material experts so the total average of the expert test is 3.75 with very valid criteria. The product developed is an application of an android-based performance instrument for soccer learning that follows the assessment rubric in the PJOK curriculum and is practically used by PJOK educators as an evaluation tool for PJOK football material.

“…This test was chosen given its documented reliability in children (Duncan et al, 2021b), where the reliability of other available soccer skill tests has not been demonstrated in children (Ali, 2011). This is in addition to its recognition as a valid measure of dribbling skill in children and youth (McCalman, et al, 2021). All testing took place on a grass surface with participants wearing soccer boots and was completed with the official ball size for age band (Size 3 for U8-U9, Size…”

One hundred and twenty-one children (58 boys and 63 girls) aged 8–14 years (mean ± SD = 12 ± 1 years) who were regularly engaged in grassroots soccer participated in this study. Participants undertook assessments of fundamental movement skill (FMS) using the Test of Gross Motor Development-3, perceived ability using the Perceived Physical Ability Scale for Children, physical fitness via 15-m sprint time, standing long jump distance, and technical skill using the university of Ghent dribbling test. The Procedural Tactical Knowledge Test was employed as a measure of tactical skill from which metrics for positioning and movement and recognizing spaces were derived. Maturation was determined from anthropometric measures. Analysis of covariance examined gender differences in tactical skills accounting for FMS, fitness, perceived ability, technical skill, maturation, and age. Results indicated no significant differences in tactical skills between boys and girls (p > .05). For recognizing spaces, 56% of the variance was explained with FMS (p = .001), physical fitness (p = .02), and technical skill (p = .02) contributing to the model. For positioning and movement, a significant model explained 55% of the variance in this element of tactical behavior with FMS (p = .002) and technical skill (p = .02) significantly contributing to the model.
