This study is motivated by the suboptimal accuracy of the forehand topspin stroke in table tennis, which is assumed to be related to several physical condition components, arm muscle power, reaction speed, and coordination. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of these three variables on the accuracy of the forehand topspin among table tennis athletes. The method used is a quantitative descriptive approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 14 athletes selected using total sampling technique. Data were collected through a series of tests and measurements, including push-up test to measure power, ruler drop test to assess reaction speed, ball throw-and-catch test for coordination, and forehand topspin accuracy tests. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, normality test, linearity test, multicollinearity test, and multiple linear regression. The results showed that arm muscle power was in the good category, while reaction speed, coordination, and forehand topspin accuracy were in the moderate category. The regression analysis indicates that the power variable has a significance value (p) of 0.716, the reaction variable has a p value of 0.217, and the coordination variable has a p value of 0.543. Partially, the three independent variables did not show a significant effect on forehand topspin accuracy (p > 0.05). These findings indicate that forehand topspin accuracy is not only determined by physical condition, but also influenced by technical skills, playing experience, and training consistency.
