Abstract

The physical condition is one of the few components necessary to achieve maximum performance in sports. It needs to be improved from early ages and evaluated over the years. Usually, with the aim to improve performance, physical condition tests are used to determine the initial conditions. A general physical condition can be tested, but, there is no evidence of physical tests used to measure the physical condition at the early age. The purpose of this study is to describe the needs of trainers related to the use of pencak silat at the early age. The method used was descriptive exploratory. The subjects involved were 44 trainers in Yogyakarta and surrounding areas. The technique of collecting data was the application of indirect questionnaire through google documents. The data analysis techniques used descriptive statistics according to the applicable procedures. The results have been shown that the partial systems and test items used for early age pencak silat are balke, push-ups, sit-ups, back-ups, 20- and 30-meter runs, side split, ball-throwing, shuttle run, and standing board jump. Based on the highest percentage, the use of test items by trainer's activity obtained 93% of push up, 98% of back up, 91% of sit-ups, and 84% of a side split. The other tests were only used by the average of 8.5% of trainers, whereas theoretically physical conditions include endurance, strength, speed, flexibility, and coordination. Lack of trainer knowledge was evident in non-certified trainers (52%), having regional certification only (39%), having provincial certification (9%). Furthermore, 89% of trainers said they need guidance on early age pencak silat test and 80% of trainers need a data processing software. Based on these results it is necessary to prepare the physical test of pencak silat at the early age. Physical tests will be composed as a battery test equipped with guidebooks and software applications with the aim to facilitate the process of the data results.
