Abstract
This research consisted of five chapters. In Chapter One, the researcher discussed the development in sports training science, focusing on methods and techniques that enhance the physical and skill development of athletes, particularly in improving reaction speed for performing defensive skills such as assistance and coverage in basketball. The research problem highlighted the need to specifically develop reaction speed exercises for defensive skills, which had been insufficiently addressed. Chapter Two covered the concept and importance of reaction speed in basketball. Chapter Three involved applying an experimental method on a sample of six players from the Oil Sports Club, using one experimental group. Chapter Four presented and discussed the results using statistical methods. Finally, in Chapter Five, the researcher concluded with key findings and offered recommendations for improving basketball training.
