Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of a volleyball coaching program on improving the interest and talent of youth in Sajang Village, Sembalun District, East Lombok Regency. The study employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest model. The subjects consisted of 45 youths who actively participated in the volleyball coaching program. The research instruments included an interest questionnaire, volleyball skill tests, and observation sheets. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired sample t-test at a significance level of 0.05. The results indicated an increase in the mean interest score from 62.40 in the pretest to 78.65 in the posttest, and an increase in the talent score from 64.10 to 80.35. The paired t-test results showed a significance value of p < 0.05, indicating a significant effect of the coaching program on improving youth interest and talent. It can be concluded that a structured and continuous volleyball coaching program is effective in enhancing youth interest and talent. This study is expected to provide a reference for the development of sports coaching programs at the village level to support regional sports achievement.
