男子大学生卓球選手のフォアハンドドライブに関する実践知

抄録

    This study aimed to investigate the practical knowledge of four male university table tennis players regarding forehand drives and to derive implications for coaching. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, and through KJ analysis, narratives related to body coordination and the sensation of hitting the ball were obtained. While there was diversity in narratives among players, using onomatopoeia and metaphors, individual differences were observed in the expression of the sensation of hitting the ball, suggesting that competitive experience and level may have an influence. Additionally, the obtained knowledge was highly dependent on the characteristics of the subjects, and there remains a challenge in universally applying it to coaching practice. In coaching practice, it is expected that skill improvement can be achieved through collaborative learning by providing opportunities for players to verbalize their sensations, introducing a review cycle using video and feedback, and conducting technical meetings where players share and compare their sensations with each other.
