Abstract

This study aims to determine differences in the effect of massed practice methods and distributed practice methods on improving tennis forehand drive skills. This study used an experimental method of 20 students who took tennis practice at school. The instrument for data collection in this study used the Forehand Drive Tennis skills test with a validity of 0.74 and a reliability of 0.85. The results of this study indicate that the distributed practice method has a more significant effect compared to the massed practice method on improving tennis forehand drive skills. This is because the distributed practice method is given time to rest, so that the quality of the student’s stroke is maintained. This research can be a reference for tennis coaches to use this exercise to improve athlete performance on the field.
