| Abstract | ||
| This research was conducted to identify the effect of visual training on some visual abilities and badminton attack shots performance accuracy. Visual abilities studied are (Vision peripheral. Visual tracking, depth perception, Vision field perception, static visual acuity, dynamic visual acuity, Visual reaction speed, Visual focus, and Eye-Hand-Body coordination). Badminton skills studied are (Forehand smash shot, forehand drop shot, forehand clear shot, and lob attacking shot). Study participants consisted of (30) players at Alexandria University, who divided randomly into two equal groups (experimental group = 15 players, and control group = 15 players). With following characteristics: (mean ± SD) age = (21.16 ± 0.9498 years), height = (177.46 ± 6.693 cm), mass = (72.766 ± 9.179 kg), and visual acuity for two eyes = (1.30± 0.60). Experimental design was used with two groups, experimental group who used visual training program and other control group who used traditional training related to badminton. Group of tests that suits to pre-mentioned visual abilities and badminton skills were used as data collecting tools. Statistical analysis was done with SPSS software package using following statistics coefficients and tests: mean, standard deviation, Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests, T test, simple correlation coefficient, change ratio. It is concluded that visual training has had positive effect on visual abilities and badminton attack shots performance accuracy | ||
