ACTIVITY PROFILE BETWEEN WINNERS AND LOSERS SILAT OLAHRAGA IN  WOMEN CLASS B, C AND D SINGAPORE 28 SEA GAMES 2015


ABSTRACT  

A notational analysis of Silat Tanding at all five matches for Women and Men Class D in SEA GAMES 2015 was conduct to identify and determine the activity profile of kicking. The five matches as mentioned above were Women Class D Final(Viet Vs Mas), quarter finals (Thai Vs Sin), semi finals (Mas Vs Sin), semi finals (Sin Vs Laos) and quarter finals (Sin Vs Ind). It was then categorized as Kick Hit Target(KHT), Kick Hit Elsewhere(KHE) and Kick Missing Opponent(KMO). All of movement classifications will be utilized including punch, kick, sweep, topple, block, self-discharge and so on, to decide the exactness and recurrence of what number of fruitful procedure is great. The purpose of the analysis is to determine the significant difference between winners and losers on the action during the match time. The notational analysis was made by analyzing the video downloaded from YouTube. Statistical analysis used in this study is SPSS version 20.0. The comparison between red and blue will analyse using the independent T-Test. The notational analysis was used to record all the selected outcomes to compliment this study such as hit target, hit elsewhere and miss opponent indicators. The study failed to reject the null hypothesis. Notational analysis proved to be a valuable tool for better training through technical and tactical aspects of  artistic interpretation in relation to the level of competition.


 INTRODUCTION

            It is believed that Silat was initially defined and formalized during the Srivijayan Empire (seventh Century CE), situated in Sumatra Island. From the seventh century onwards, the battle specialty of Silat had effectively spread all through the Malay Peninsula. Hundreds of years of tribal fighting and common wars prompted migration of individuals from Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi (in present-day Indonesia) to the Malay Peninsula and all through Southeast Asia. Pencak silat is a combination of art and martial. Pencak silat cover the martial art games that combine art and performed in the beautiful dance style. The dance steps in the Pencak silat have a relationship with self-defense attack. It is support by music, which aim to create a festive environment in the martial arts event. Silat olahraga form based on the development of institution seni pencak silat and martial arts. Hence, silat olahraga is fairly developed and expended on par with other martial arts. This is important because over the years many athletes have never participated in silat olahraga game.
Silat olahraga competitions use the elements of the game that based on norms of the sport. In silat olahraga competition, there are three types of games such as championship games, games shows and free competition or extraordinary championship (Wahab, 1996). The main role of silat is constantly self-protection. No cognizant exertion is made to make universal silat an arrangement of physical instruction or a game. silat's specialized essentials manage the utilization of weapons; no soldier is ever required to enter battle depending just on his void hands.
 The word martial means the type of sport or game, which consists of rapid movements in attack and defense Silat sport is a sport that is in the midst of the development of thousands of martial arts schools in the archipelago. Sport means the ability to silat exponent to perform martial arts techniques in combat with the striking and defensive actions such as hitting, kicking, throwing, catching, parrying and blocking and expertise related to martial arts techniques. In physical strength and flexibility increase in adult or elite martial arts athletes (Callister, Staron, Fleck, Tesch, Dudley,1991) .


 MATERIALS AND METHOD

The notational analysis was made by analyzing the video downloaded from channel Sport Singapore by YouTube.  By watching these videos, the matches had been used to notated and analyzed in this study. The five matches that we’ve been analysed were Women Class D Final(Viet Vs Mas), quarter finals (Thai Vs Sin), semi finals (Mas Vs Sin), semi finals (Sin Vs Laos) and quarter finals (Sin Vs Ind). This variable is then divided into several parts which are Kick Hit Target, Kick Hit Elsewhere and Kick Missing Opponent. The video consist of Women Class B, C and D. The video came from quarter-finals, semi-finals and final matches.
At the time of analyzing, the analyzer use video media player to play the video. Every match consists of three (3) rounds in total of fighting. Two (2) minutes for every round, with 1 minute rest between each round. The video then were played in slow-motion to identify the action/skills made by the exponents. Sometimes, if necessary, the video will be repeated to get the accurate analyze (Shapie, Nizam, Oliver, O'donoghue, & Tong, 2013).

MOTION ANALYSIS


In silat, there are different types of motion such as:
Punch:
The punch ‘tumbuk’ attack is done by a hand with closed fist hitting the target. In silat, punching is often used to fight the opponent. It can be a straight punch ‘tumbuk lurus’ or uppercut ‘sauk’ to exponent body’s (Anuar, 1992).

Kick:
The kick ‘tendang’ or ‘terajang’ is an ataacking movement which is performed with one leg or two legs simultaneously. A kick can be aimed at any target. It can be front kick ‘tendang depan’, side kick ‘depak’ or semi-circular side kick ‘ tendang lengkar’(Anuar, 1992).

Block:
The blocking movements begin with the posture position ‘sikap pasang’: the exponent stands straight with his hands around his body or close to his chest. Blocking or parrying ‘tangkisan’ can be done using arms, elbows and legs with the purpose to block off or striking back at any attck (Anuar, 1992).

Catch:
The catch ‘tangkapan’ is done by using the hand to obstruct the opponent from carrying out an attack. The silat exponent is able to prevent himself from being attacked by pointing the attack which he has caught to another direction. A catch which twists or drags the opponent is forbidden. Also, a catch which could break the part which is being held such as the leg and waist is also forbidden. These regulations exit to protect the silat exponent’s (Anuar, 1992).

Topple:
There are various ways of toppling down one’s opponent. For example, a silat exponent ‘pesilat’ can either push, shove the opponent’s back leg from the bad or from the side, shove, hit, kick, strike or punch to make the opponent lose his balance. Every falls is considered valid as long as the sila exponent topples his opponent down without wresting or he is able to overpower the opponent whom he has brought down (Anuar, 1992).

Sweep:
Swiping ‘sapuan’ involves attacking an opponent’s leg which is on the ground to unstable him and brings down to the ground. A silat exponent can perform this attacking movement either with his right or left leg. Hence, front sweep ‘sapuan depan’ is done by swinging the leg to the front to push an opponent’s leg, while back sweep ‘sapuan belakang’ is carried out by swinging the leg backward to hit the back leg (Anuar, 1992).

Evade/Dodge:
The evade ‘elakan’ technique is carried out by silat exponent when he tries to evade an attack. This technique does not require the silat exponent to touch the opponent in fending off the attack. They are many ways of carrying out his defensive movement such as dodging ‘gelek’, retreat ‘mundur’, evasion to the side ‘elak sisi’, bending ‘elak serung’, jumping ‘lonjak’ ducking ‘susup’ and etc. (Anuar, 1992).

Self-Release:
Self-release ‘lepas tangkapan’ technique is a technique to unlock any clinch or catch from an opponent (Anuar, 1993).

Block and Punch:
The blocking technique is used to block any hand or leg attack from the opponent and followed by counter attack using the leg to kick the opponent (Shapie, Oliver, O’Donoghue, & Tong, 2013).

Block and Kick:
The blocking technique is used to block any hand or leg attack from the opponent and followed by counter attack using sweeping technique to the opponent (Shapie et al., 2013). Block and Sweep:
The blocking technique is used to block any hand or leg attack from the opponent and followed by counter attack using sweeping technique to the opponent (Shapie et al., 2013).

Fake Punch:
An action which a silat exponent intends to confuse the opponent using a fake punch to break his opponent’s defensive posture (Shapie et al., 2013).

Fake Kick:
An action which a silat exponent intends to confuse the opponent using a fake kick to break his opponent defensive posture (Shapie et al., 2013).


 RELIABILITY OF OBSERVATION

The author analyzed all the activities and simultaneously classified each change of motion in a 5 separated match. Observations were done separated by 48 hours. It requires experienced silat olahraga practitioners to analyses the data as the movement of both exponents is fast, needing close inspection. The classification of movement was subjective with work being classified according to the instruction given by the referee.

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

Statistical analysis used in this study is SPSS version 21. The process to analyze the data involved  Microsoft Words, Microsoft Excel and SPSS. The remark generated data will be regularity counted, and every round of data will be composed to be analysed. All the raw data collected from the all matches use the (SPSS) Statistical package social science system that produced by Shapie at al 2013. A descriptive analysis was used to determine the difference performance between the winners and losers in silat matches and all the data had been notate the mean, standard deviation and standard error.

DISCUSSION


As the result obtained, mean value for Kick Hit Target(KHT) for the winner is bigger than the loser while for Kick Hit Elesewhere(KHE) and Kick Missing Opponent(KMO) are smaller for the winner compare to the loser. This data are accepteable as the winner hit target for most of the times during the matches. KHE and KMO are not important for the exponents to get the point for winning the game. Independent paired t-test is used to collect the data from 28th SEA Games Singapore 2015, Final Women’s Class D 65 KG Vietnam versus Malaysia, quarter finals (Thai Vs Sin), semi finals (Mas Vs Sin), semi finals (Sin Vs Laos) and quarter finals (Sin Vs Ind). Malaysia won the game (vs Vietnam) made an exact motion in collecting point as Malaysian athlete SITI RAHMAH MOHAMED NASIR by blocking and attacking at the same time. The mean values for overall motion of action and outcomes for.
Vietnam has the mean of 1.86 and Malaysia is 1.88 a little bit higher than Malaysia. All the result shown that, higher means lost the game. In summary, Vietnam athletes have been chosen to see the factor of losing and winning in analysing their motion category that they used. Vietnam  using frequent attacking such punching and kicking but most of the attack hit elsewhere and not the target, the mean and standard deviation Malaysia is slightly better than Vietnam. Mean and standard deviation for Malaysia were M(1.88) and SD(.732) over Vietnam were M(1.86) and SD(.672). The mistake that Vietnam did is less self-release. They focus so much on punching and kicking that the Malaysia have been waiting to catch and straight down to swept the Vietnam athlete. Vietnam frequently using kicking on hit target but weak in defencing and lack of self-release skill that they easily got toppled by Malaysia athlete.
Based on the data collected and result, the match between Singapore vs Indonesia was winning by Wewey Wita from Indonesia. What can I observed from the video was Indonesia did more attacking than Singapore. As we can see from the result, Indonesia makes 11 kick hit target, 1 punch hit target and 5 block and kick hit target. As we can saw the sampled paired test at the table above show, there were totally different in hit target between Indonesia and Singapore. This observation can saw that Indonesia attack more than Singapore. Singapore gives more opportunity to Indonesia to make more attacking during match.
From the match result Singapore vs Laos class B 55kg category which Laos is winning this match, Laos is more used kicking skill than Singapore. That is why Laos get more point. Furthermore, Laos do less mistake that can deduct her point than Singapore. Besides kicking, Laos also do more block and kicking hit target to her opponent. Singapore also do more skill such as kicking and punching hit target but at the same time, Singapore do lot of mistake that deduct her point and finally got less point because of her mistakes.


For the match result which is quarter finals Singapore vs Thailand class D 65kg category which Singapore is winning this match Nurul Suhaila Mohamed Saiful, what can I observed from the video is Singapore do more attacking than Thailand. As we can see from the result, Singapore makes 19 times punch hit target, 14 times kick hit target and 2 times topple toward her opponent. As we can see the sample paired test at the table above show, there are totally different between winning and losing. This observation for the winner while for the loser is Thailand make less attacking during match. Thailand gives more opportunity to Singapore to make more attacking during match.
The match of semi finals Singapore vs Malaysia class D 65kg category which Singapore lose this match, what can I observed from the video is Malaysia do more attacking than Singapore. As we can see from the result, Singapore makes only 6 times punch hit target, 4 times kick hit target and 3 times topple toward her opponent. As we can see the sample paired test at the table above show, there are totally different between winning and losing. This observation for the loser while for the winner is Malaysia make more attacking during match. Singapore gives more opportunity to Malaysia to make more attacking during match.
Referring to Aziz, Tan, and Teh (2002) others martial arts may have same movement with “silat olahraga” but there must have any different related to the exponent relative. For example, in Tae Kwando can be devide into 3 section which is sparring, patterns and destruction. In sparring it is involves of development their timing, focus and speed. It is important in controlled environment to prevent the injuries occurs. Study conducted by Aziz et al.,(2002) Silat tend to have more explosive power on lower limb compared to Tae Kwando and the athletes able to controlled their lower body function to prevent from injuries.


 CONCLUSION

Seni pencak silat is a combination of martial and art. This study want to determine the significant difference between winners and losers by focusing on Kick Hit Target, Kick Hit Elsewhere and Kick Missing Opponent. According to Shapie, Oliver, O’Donoghue, Tong (2013) it is important to understand that high intensity actions such as punch, kick, topple, sweep and block will contribute more in the score points rather than low intensity actions in Pencak Silat. Notational analysis proved to be a valuable tool for better training through technical and tactical aspects of  artistic interpretation in relation to the level of competition. By notating the matches, it clearly seen that most of the exponents will use kick during the game. They did the movement with very high speed to ensure they got the point. 


RECOMMENDATION

            It is recommended that the sample size should be more than 30 in order to develop new hypothesis. This means that the category of Silat Tanding should be more various and increase the participation in SEA Games. Otherwise, we will need more study in this field for future improvement in Seni Pencak Silat. The variables (skills) should be more specific in details so that the variation of creed can be minimized. This will help a better research development onwards. The reliability of data can be improved by the specification of the skills. Coaches need to emphasize the skill related fitness of and athlete to enhance their performance. There is a limitation of this case study as the findings here only represent only four silat match, so the findings cannot be generalised to all silat competition
