Abstract
The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of motor skills and self-confidence on triple jump skills.
 Materials and methods. The study participants (n = 41) were male college students aged 18–20 years. Regression analysis (path analysis) was used to analyze the interrelationship between motor skills variable variables, self-confidence (exogenous variables) and triple jump skills (endogenous variables).
 Results. The analysis indicated that there is an influence of motor skills towards triple jump skills with = (r ≥ 0.711; p < 0.000; significant) and a linear determination coefficient (R2 ≥ 0.506) contributing 50.60%. There is an influence of self-confidence on triple jump skills with = (r ≥ 0.707, p < 0.000; significant) and a linear determination coefficient (R2 ≥ 0.50) contributing 50.00%. There is an influence of motor skills on self-confidence with = (r ≥ 0.693, p < 0.000; significant) and a linear determination coefficient (R2 ≥ 0.480) contributing 48.00%. There is an influence of motor skills and self-confidence on triple jump skills with = (r ≥ 0.771, p < 0.000; significant) and a linear determination coefficient (R2 ≥0.594; p < 0.005; significant), the total exogenous variable contribution is 59.40%.
 Conclusions. Motor skills and self-confidence must be considered by educators or trainers during the training process. Good motor skills and high self-confidence will affect triple jump skills.
Highlights
Triple jump is defined as a series of runs, jumps with quick movements from a predetermined jump or support that are two times the same foot hop and one other leg with a simultaneous movement (Djumidar, 2004)

Summary
Triple jump is defined as a series of runs, jumps with quick movements from a predetermined jump or support that are two times the same foot hop and one other leg with a simultaneous movement (Djumidar, 2004). The triple jump is a complex movement consisting of three separate phases, combined with a single movement in an effort to maximize the farthest distance (Wilson, Simpson, & Hamill, 2009). This jump consists of three stages: take-off hop, step, and jump (Mohammed, Idris, Ali, & Nasreddin, 2016). Bio shows the biological nature (body) of ability (Bompa & Buzzichelli, 2014) This form can be grouped as: speed, strength, endurance, agility and fatigue (Jerábek, 2003). The purpose of the run-up is to make athletes reach the optimum position for landing at a controlled speed in that jump technique
