THROWING AND CATCHING TRAINING MODEL FOR SOFTBALL ATHLETES AGED 16 - 19 YEARS: Systematic Review
Keywords:
throwing, catching, softball
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the model of throwing and responding training in softball
for athletes aged 16-19 years through a systematic review. Article searches were
conducted using electronic databases derived from Scopus published from 2019 to
2024 using the keywords throwing, catching, biomechanics, kinetic, and softball.
The inclusion criteria in this literature review resulted in 15 selected articles resulting
from a screening process of 104 articles. The results presented in this literature
review reveal the fact that there are several results of throwing and catching
exercises in softball. from the results of the exercise show an increase in terms of
accuracy and speed of throwing, and in catching there is accuracy in catching the
ball. However, the sample research tends to senior athletes. therefore this
systematic review helps the author to find problems that will be researched in the
future.
