Abstract
This study aims to identify the variability of stride length and stride frequency of junior-level 100 m sprinters with different performance levels and to verify the kinematics parameters of the phases of sprinting. Data were collected from a sample of 9 junior sprinter athletes determined by purposeful sampling. The analysis results show that the average number of steps for 100 m is 52.8. For the variable stride length, the average is 1.88 m. The step frequency variable shows an average of 4.77 steps/second (max step frequency). During the acceleration phase, the average stride frequency is 4.48 steps/second. The score in the last phase, i.e., the sprinters must maintain their velocity until the end of the race from a distance of 60 – 100 m, shows an average rate of 4.07 steps/second. The average sprinting time of the sprinters is 11.74 seconds, and the average speed of the sprinters is 8.54 ms-1, with a top speed of 8.95 ms-1 and the lowest speed of 7.99 ms-1. Based on the analysis of kinematic parameters, the different phase structures. The results show that stride length significantly contributes to the 100 m sprint performance than stride frequency, which is no longer considered the most critical determinant of performance at junior-level athletes.
