The sample in this study amounted to 40 students taken based on the inclusion criteria set by the researcher, including 12-13 years old and male subjects in good health. The instrument in this study used a drill to shoot a free throw 10 times. Results. The results of this study show that animal name-based learning significantly improves the movement of shooting free throw skills in basketball games; this can be seen in the pre-test results of the experimental group, which found a std. The deviation value of 4.087, the control group of 4.652, and the post-test results of the experimental group were found to be std. Deviation of 5.44 and the control group of 5.77. Conclusions.
