Pengaruh Modifikasi Permainan Botolkaret Terhadap Kemampuan Passing dan Minat Siswa pada Pembelajaran Sepak Bola

Abstract

Soccer instruction is often hindered by students’ low interest in learning and poor basic motor skills, particularly in the technique of inside-foot passing, due to a lack of instructional variety. This study aims to determine the effect of a modified rubber bottle game on students’ inside-foot passing ability and interest in learning during soccer instruction. A quantitative method with a one-group pretest-posttest design was used. A sample of 42 ninth-grade students from MTs Ulumiyah Kebonharjo was selected using purposive sampling. The research instruments consisted of a passing skill test and a learning interest questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and a paired-sample t-test with SPSS version 23. The results of the study indicate that the modification of the rubber bottle game does not have a significant effect on inside-foot passing ability (Sig. 0.971 > 0.05), but has a highly significant effect on students’ learning interest (Sig. 0.000 < 0.05). In conclusion, the modification of the rubber bottle game is effective in increasing learning interest but has not yet been able to significantly improve passing ability; therefore, it needs to be combined with more structured technical training.
