Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of different types of practice on badminton skill in elementary school student during practice with observation learning, repeated reading and mixed practice combining observation learning and repeated reading. Methods: Thirty-six 5th grade male elementary students participated and were randomly assigned into four different groups; control, observation learning(OL), repeated reading(RR), and mixed model(MD). Before performing the striking skill, they observed the badminton expert’s performance three times in real time. They were asked to peform high clear striking as a badminton skill 20 times at pre-test, practice, retention(RT) and delayed retention(DR). During intervention, control group watched video clips not related badminton, OL was asked to watch the video containing the expert performance in saggital view, RR was required to read the customized reading material, and MD watched the expert’s video and read the reading material. Results: There was significant difference in performance score between pre-test, RT, DR in MD. Conclusion: The current results suggest that MD seems more effective practice to learn badminton skill for male elementary school student.
