Evaluation of Fundamental Football Proficiencies among Elementary School Pupils in PJOK Instruction at SD Negeri 05 Indralaya

Abstrak

This study seeks to evaluate the proficiency of fundamental football skills among fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 05 Indralaya during Physical Education (PJOK) classes. The study employed a descriptive quantitative methodology, utilizing a sample of 58 students from two classes. Data were gathered via observation and performance assessments concentrating on essential football skills, such as passing, dribbling, shooting, and ball control. The findings indicated that the majority of students had inadequate fundamental football skills. A limited number of students attained the "good" and "very good" classifications, although the bulk were designated as "fair" and "poor." The data suggest that pupils' proficiency in football techniques is inadequate. Multiple factors contribute to this state, including restricted learning time, insufficient sports facilities, and the absence of a skill-based pedagogical approach in PJOK. Teachers are advised to adopt more structured and engaging learning models, offer additional practice opportunities, and boost student motivation through interactive and pleasurable learning activities. This study emphasizes the necessity of enhancing the quality of football education to cultivate students' fundamental movement skills in primary schooling.
