Abstract
This study introduces a throw training system that aims to improve the athletic performance of children who see themselves as not good at sports. The lack of exercise among children has become more severe in recent years, the main causes being fewer opportunities and environments in the neighborhood that enable children to play outside and engage in sports activities. The authors of this study have developed a throw training system that utilizes visual and sound effects. The system is designed for use in elementary school physical education (PE) classes and allows for enjoyable use, training, and learning. The effectiveness of the system was evaluated by elementary school students who participated in a set of experiments in a PE-class setting.
