Height, Push-Off Angle, Explosive Power: Do they Correlate with Volleyball Athlete Jumping Performance?

Abstract

Background and Study Aim: Jump performance is the main asset in attacking volleyball. Jump performance is influenced by various factors that affect this indicator, such as body balance, upper and lower body coordination, as well as explosive power. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between height, push-off angle, explosive power, and jumping performance in volleyball student athletes. Material and Methods: The method used was a correlational, 7 male volleyball student athletes as samples (age = 21.00 ± 1.732 years, height = 167.86 ± 1.864 cm). Sampling technique used is purposive sampling, Shapiro-Wilk and Levene's test to determine normality and homogeneity. Data calculations were processed using the help of IBM SPSS version 26.0., with decision making p < 0.05. Results: Variable Push-Off Angle and Explosive Power show significant results (p < 0.05). The Pearson correlation value for Push-Off Angle is -0.781, while the correlation value for Explosive Power is 0.908. Conversely, the variable Height does not show significant results (p > 0.05), with a Pearson Correlation value of -0.334. The findings indicate that the aspect of Explosive Power provides a significant contribution with a positive relationship. This is followed by the aspect of Push-Off Angle, but the results show that this aspect provides a moderate contribution with a negative relationship. Additionally, the aspect of Height shows a negative relationship and a low contribution value. Conclusions: The Study’s findings conclude that Push-Off Angle and Explosive Power have a significant correlation and play a crucial role in enhancing Jump Performance. However, Body Height does not exhibit a significant correlation with Jump Performance. These findings also conclude that the aspect that plays a crucial role in jump performance is explosive power.
