This study aimed to investigate and compare the effects of employing the command style and the reciprocal style on the accuracy of the backhand low serve skill in badminton. The experimental method was used, and the study sample consisted of 40 students from the Department of Physical Education, enrolled in badminton and table tennis courses. The participants were purposefully selected and divided into two equivalent experimental groups: the first experimental group (20 students) used the command style, and the second experimental group (20 students) used the reciprocal style. Pre-tests were conducted, followed by the implementation of the instructional program for duration of 6 weeks, with three weekly teaching units, each lasting 60 minutes. Post-tests were conducted, and the necessary statistical analyses were performed.
The results revealed that the first experimental group (command style) showed improvement in post-test performance compared to pre-test performance, indicating the effectiveness of the command style in enhancing the learning of accuracy in the backhand low serve skill. Similarly, the second experimental group (reciprocal style) demonstrated enhanced post-test performance compared to pre-test performance, highlighting the effectiveness of the reciprocal style in enhancing accuracy in the backhand low serve skill. Furthermore, the results showed that the second experimental group (reciprocal style) outperformed the first experimental group (command style) in terms of average performance in the post-test, emphasizing the efficacy of the reciprocal style in improving accuracy in the backhand low serve skill in badminton.
In conclusion, the study recommended using the command style for teaching and developing accuracy in the backhand low serve skill in badminton.
