DISCUSSION

            As the result, Men’s Class A Indonesia versus Vietnam and Men’s Class D Indonesia versus Thailand lost the match. According to table 1, we can see that Indonesia Class A have the high percentage on miss opponent. It means that, during the match, the skills that are being used are mostly miss opponent. The technique of topple and sweep are being used by the Vietnam team in this match. In table 2, we can see that, Thailand mostly hit the target accurately than Indonesia and Indonesia have higher percentage on miss opponent. It means that a lot of unforced error during the match. For Men’s Class A Indonesia Versus Philippines and Men’s Class A Indonesia Versus Singapore won the match. According to table 3 and table 4 both match hit the target accurately. Both table shows that hit target are higher than their opponent. 

CONCLUSION

            In conclusion, both Class shows a good performance during every match. The athletes that lost the match should increase their accuracy during match and training so that they can perform better in upcoming events. According to all the video, Indonesia’s team more likely use sweep in their match especially for Class A. The winning for Class A in both match is because of the technique that been used in the match is more to sweep and topple. We can see from the result that during the match against Singapore and Philippines, the athletes have the high potential of using dodge and catch. For Class D more likely using punching and kicking. Besides, Class D are less using block and dodge letting the opponent easily getting punch, kick, topple and sweep. The video also shows that the athlete is tired and suffering during the fight.

  
RECOMMENDATION

As we know that sometimes, people make mistakes and humans are not perfect but we can practice to be perfect. Silat athletes should practice more on their target and technique to improve their performance especially on catch, dodge, punch, kick, sweep, and topple. As we know that silat is a martial art, we must train longer to improve the technique and the most important thing is the strength of the athlete so they cannot easily sweep or topple. The technique for sweep and topple is also important because both of the skills can give you high point during match. Defence and counter attack is important for martial art athletes so that we can easily hit the opponent with sweep or topple. The most important is the cardiovascular system. As an example, how fast the recovery time during the break of each round from the athlete. Thus, speed is also important for counter attack. As we can see the video from Men’s Class D, the athlete is tired. So, he should improve his cardiovascular system so that he can create a lot of movement during the match. It is important to the athlete to identify the opponent movement so that they are prepare for attack or defence. Last but not least, video analysis can be a guidance to identify the athlete’s mistake. Video analysis can be the performance indicator for an athlete. We can see the mistakes and weaknesses in the match by watching the video.
