Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of power and coordination on dropkick conversion accuracy among rugby athletes in East Kalimantan. The research employed a quantitative approach, with all active rugby athletes in East Kalimantan as the sample. Dropkick accuracy was measured using a dropkick test with scoring results, the power variable was assessed using the Vertical Jump Test, while eye-hand-foot coordination was measured through a modified Sridadi test instrument into the drop-up in test. The analysis technique applied was path analysis. The results indicate that: (1) there is a direct relationship between power and coordination, (2) both power and coordination have a direct effect on dropkick conversion performance. Therefore, it can be concluded that improving power and coordination can enhance dropkick conversion success in rugby athletes.
